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?
