The package update in question does not appear to have fixed this, at least not for me. Running Precise, I upgraded software-center to version 5.2.9, then ran sudo update-apt-xapian-index -vf. I got the same results as reported originally, with the workaround I posted (though now on line 166) having the same effect.
