The interesting thing is that tianeptine is not a very strong serotonin uptake acellerator. SSRI's may inhibit SERT like >%70, but comparitively Tianeptine is a weaker serotonin acellerator (in the 20-40% range if I recall)
So, if you found a dose of ginkgo that provided this degree of uptake acelleration, you may not be way off in comparison to tianeptine.
The acetylcholinesterase inhibition of ginkgo, may not be desired though.
