No, that's allowing Search::Xapian to build against current git master
of xapian-core - the Perl method is still named
Search::Xapian::QueryParser::set_max_wildcard_expansion() but calls the
replacement C++ method when built with xapian-core >= 1.5.0 (which is
what git master reports itself as).

It's on the svn/1.2 branch of our git repo, in the search-xapian
subdirectory (I plead "historical reasons").
