Comment:

 Adding these lines to the interface file causes xapian.BAD_VALUENO to be
 handled as a constant, and cvar is no longer generated:

 {{{
 #!python
 %ignore Xapian::BAD_VALUENO;
 %constant Xapian::valueno BAD_VALUENO = Xapian::BAD_VALUENO;
 }}}

 Fixed in trunk r14694.  Marking for backport to 1.0.21 as the patch is low
 risk.
