 Using the xapian.TermGenerator with the standard French stemmer text
 containing, for example,  "l'Etat" gives terms "l'etat" and "Zl'etat". The
 problem is that if you then search for "etat" you won't get a match but in
 most cases this is probably what users want.

 I suppose that the correct thing would be to stem to etat?
