 You don't have to run a xapian server to use Xapian's remote backend - if
 you use the "prog" variant, you can (for example) use ssh to run xapian-
 progsrv (which handles a single session
 on stdin/stdout) on another host.  In this case, the communication happens
 across the ssh connection.  With a little work, it should be possible to
 run xapian-progsrv across an existing communication channel.
