I've committed a fix upstream:
https://trac.xapian.org/changeset/7a7c948abac86bee3cbb72d557520e30f77c88f6/git
I think applying this will have to wait until after stretch though.
But I found a better workaround, which is to pass a Unicode string for the
grouping parameter. This works with the package currently in testing:
$ python -c "import xapian; qp = xapian.QueryParser();
qp.add_boolean_prefix('tag', 'K', u'')"
That uses the preferred form, and also works when the grouping parameter
isn't an empty string.

Registering should now work reliably - it was a caching bug in the trac
account manager plugin.
