I’ve patched my running instance with recompiled SearchManager and Log classes so that I can log the exception properly.
This is the resulting stack trace. I shall investigate further.

Subject: Re: [GeoNetwork-devel] Error on rebuilding lucene index.
For info, I removed the entire lucene directory, restarted geonetwork, thus causing a complete rebuild of lucene, and got exactly the same error.

Unfortunately the stack trace is swallowed by the code at line 1315 of org.fao.geonet.kernel.search.SearchManager.java so I can’t easily investigate further.
I am using a vanilla 2.6.4 Geonetwork on Unix.
