Sam, you have recently updated the Xapian dependency. Could this be a side effect? Also, there is an open PR (https://github.com/gentoo/gentoo/pull/17533), but that should only affect installation of the manual pages.

My change was just adding := which is a subslot operator which got dropped in the bump. This causes notmuch to be rebuilt if Xapian's ABI changes.

Relevant context from the failure log:
>Checking for Xapian development files (>= 1.4.0)...
> Xapian 1.2.25 not supported... No.

This is a bit weird, given the emerge-history.txt file shows:
>2020-09-21T03:58:14 >>> dev-libs/xapian-1.4.17
>2020-09-21T04:03:24 >>> sys-libs/talloc-2.3.1
>2020-09-21T04:04:37 >>> dev-libs/gmime-3.2.7
>2020-09-21T04:05:39 >>> net-mail/notmuch-0.31

I have successfuly built both net-mail/notmuch-0.30-r1 and net-mail/notmuch-0.31 on a fresh Gentoo VM just now. Each Notmuch version was built once with dev-libs/xapian-1.4.14 (stable), and once with dev-libs/xapian-1.4.17 (~amd64). No errors, no problems. I don't see how I can help here.

    net-mail/notmuch: tighten xapian dep in 0.31
    
    I can't reproduce this *but* upstream state [0][1]
    we need >=dev-libs/xapian-1.4.0, so let's
    require it, although most people should be fine
    in ~.
