It's not currently supported.  We had concluded it wasn't possible to,
but I probably found a way to do it.  The story is in this ticket:

http://trac.xapian.org/ticket/401

As noted in the last comment in #401, this can probably be implemented
using the trick described in http://trac.xapian.org/ticket/554 but
nobody's yet done that yet.  If you want to work on it, a patch would be
great.

Cheers,
