Please give me the steps to reproduce.  In particular, I need to know what USE flags you used.  You can also obtain this info from the last few lines of

    emerge --info xapian

xapian has been in the tree a long time and I tested many times over and never hit anything, so I need details if this is a corner case.

I've also tried w/ gcc 4.6.3 with the same results.
Comment 6 Albert W. Hopkins 2012-09-04 20:36:08 UTC
Ok I just tried it with all USE flags swiched on and it built, so let's see what USE flag(s) is the catalyst.
Comment 7 Albert W. Hopkins 2012-09-04 22:55:24 UTC
Here are my findings:

-brass -chert -flint -remote inmemory: Fail
-brass -chert flint inmemory remote: Pass
-brass -remote chert flint inmemory: Fail
-brass chert flint inmemory remote: Pass
-brass -chert -inmemory flint remote: Pass
-brass -inmemory chert flint remote: Pass
-brass -flint chert inmemory remote: Fail
-brass -chert -flint -inmemory -remote: Fail

-inmemory brass chert flint remote: Pass
-inmemory -remote brass chert flint: Fail
-remote brass chert flint inmemory: Fail

I don't currently see the pattern.
Comment 8 Albert W. Hopkins 2012-09-04 23:04:19 UTC
Ok, in all the Passing ones, "flint" is on.  But apparenly "flint" isn't enough.  It needs at least one other flag, but not just *any* flag.  The following combinations pass:

-brass -chert flint inmemory remote: Pass
-brass chert flint inmemory remote: Pass
-brass -chert -inmemory flint remote: Pass
-brass -inmemory chert flint remote: Pass
brass chert flint inmemory remote: Pass
-chert -inmemory brass flint remote: Pass
-chert brass flint inmemory remote: Pass
-inmemory brass chert flint remote: Pass        

I don't know what the different backends mean.  But the most minimal combination that works appears to be "-brass -chert -inmemory flint remote" so I'll use that one for the time being.

> I've also tried w/ gcc 4.6.3 with the same results.

Thanks for the exhaustive analysis!  This has nothing to do with gcc or glibc.  It happens on a completely stable system too, gcc-4.5.4  and glibc-2.15-r2.

Looks like all passing tests need both flint and remote.  Subtracting those you get the remaining 8 possibilities:

-brass -chert  inmemory
-brass  chert  inmemory

-brass -chert -inmemory
-brass  chert -inmemory

 brass  chert  inmemory
 brass -chert -inmemory

 brass -chert  inmemory
 brass  chert -inmemory

I need to pass this bug upstream.  As far as gentoo is concerned, I may just have to drop USE=flint and remote and force --enable them.  Let's see what upstream has to say first.
Comment 10 Anthony Basile gentoo-dev 2012-09-05 01:09:49 UTC
Upstream bug filed: http://trac.xapian.org/ticket/603

Also, this happens with xapian-1.2.12 which is the latest version.  Changing topic to reflect this.
Comment 11 dE 2012-09-05 03:44:42 UTC
brass flint remote worked for me.
Comment 12 Johan Bergström 2012-09-05 03:50:46 UTC
This bug is related (just stating the obvious): bug 409027.

> This bug is related (just stating the obvious): bug 409027.

My suggestion to upstream is that, since it doesn't make sense to have no backends, to just make some decision here about what needs to be hardcoded and remove the options from the build system.  Removing backends might be useful to slim down, but not if it breaks things.
Comment 14 Anthony Basile gentoo-dev 2012-09-10 10:57:38 UTC
USE=flint and remote dropped and forced enabled.  Upstream is aware of the issue and suggest we simply not expose the options for now.
