This can be disabled fairly easily. You need to tweak the source
currently (stemming language "none" instead of "english") - I've
not got around to making this a config file option yet.

Really, I think you need to design your UI so that the language for a
query does get specified (either explicitly or implicitly), or not stem.
You can try to be clever - see the latter half of this message (and the
replies):
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.search.xapian.devel/447
But I've seen that tried and I'm not convinced it's the right approach.
Cheers,
