Comment (by Olly Betts):

 In practice mismatching xapian-bindings and xapian-core versions will
 often work together, provided they're from the same release series.
 There's a warning about it as sometimes it doesn't work it's not feasible
 for us to test all such combinations (since there are O(n²) of them -
 nearly 400 for 1.4 currently) - the simple and reliable advice is to stick
 to matching versions, but if you're trying to test something like this
 it's definitely sensible to test with the latest version you can.

 You can also get Ubuntu packages of a newer version of Xapian from
 https://launchpad.net/~xapian/+archive/ubuntu/backports - that's
 maintained by us (we take packages from Debian, just like Ubuntu
 themselves do, but we rebuild them for all current Ubuntu releases).

 We're not going to be able to fix something in 1.4.14 retrospectively so
 any fix for this will be in a new stable release.

 Also, if you're patching xapian-bindings but don't tell us, it's much
 harder to help you.  It's also really helpful to forward such patches
 upstream.
