Cool. FWIW there's an NNTP log snip in that bug (it doesn't seem to
include the server's actual responses, just what was sent) and my
.gnus.el was as in
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=355071

It's not happening at the moment, but if it happens again I'll gather a
copy of the newsrc.eld and let you guys know.

The only really irritating bug right now is
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=379665
(I have seven open bugs filed with Debian)
