Hi Justus,
I can confirm that this patch breaks as Totzke has described it:

http://git.notmuchmail.org/git/notmuch/commitdiff/3434d194026ff65217d9342ffe511f67fd71e79f

This change makes python segfault with a Xapianerror on stdout rather
than the python exception that we were seeing before this patch.

-     _open.restype = c_void_p
+     _open.restype = NotmuchDatabaseP


As the patch obviously fixed other crashers I would like to not revert
it. Can you have a look and see if you find a cause of that?

Sebastian
