Yes - this means that xapian-core will need a library transition for the
GCC 5 transition.

Unfortunately I'm unlikely to have time to sort that out before debcamp.
I'm happy for someone to NMU for it (or in the first instance, prepare
a patch ready for an NMU - see https://bugs.debian.org/791312#5 for
details).  I've Cc-ed 791312.
