Thanks.  I'll update INSTALL with a link to this message/thread

Btw, I noticed xapian14-bindings isn't packaged.  If it were, it
would include the better-maintained Xapian.pm (SWIG) binding.
Getting Search::Xapian (XS) from CPAN would no longer be
necessary.

The SWIG binding lagged behind the XS one for many years, but
it's been good since Xapian 1.4.16 (2020-06-08) and I've been
testing it regularly on FreeBSD.
