I believe the problem is a Xapian bug still present in 1.4.6. The
following patch (to Xapian) seems to fix it for me:

          https://oligarchy.co.uk/xapian/patches/glass-cursor-rebuild-fix.patch

If I understand correctly Olly will release Xapian 1.4.7 pretty soon
with this fix (and another one that affects the notmuch test suite).
