It should be impossible for more than one process to open a Xapian
database for writing at the same time. So if the processes are really
running in parallel, you should be getting error codes from the later
calls to notmuch_database_open{_verbose}. You claim that's not
happening, which is puzzling. Maybe you can try to duplicate your
problem with a tiny C program.
