I don't think the notmuch configure script is very well set up for "one
package per hierarchy". That could probably improved, but a simple
workaround would be to install xapian and notmuch into the same
${foo}/{lib,bin} hierarchy, where foo=${HOME} and foo=/usr/local are
both reasonably well tested, I believe (although not by me).
