Xapian #529 certainly looked similar, but turned out to just be due to someone using older generated code which still had the bug which the testcase was checking for (and the reporter was using Python 2.4). This doesn't seem to be as simple as a Python 2.7 incompatibility, as the tests apparently pass with 2.7 on Microsoft Windows. It would be interesting to know what the extra objects are if someone wants to poke around, but if you just want a workaround, you could just patch to comment out the two "expect(object_count, len(gc.get_objects()))" checks for now.
FYI, I just fixed this in upstream trunk: http://trac.xapian.org/changeset/15457 Unless there's an issue with it, this fix will be in the next release (1.2.6).
xapian-bindings-1.2.7 is now in the tree, so this should be fixed.
