I was using 26.

I have now tried 27.2, and 28.0.50 (and 25) and all produce the same
error.

I think it is odd that I get the error if I start gnus from the command
line, with emacs -nw -f gnus, but if I start emacs first, emacs -nw,
then start gnus from within emacs. I get no error.

So perhaps I just need to delay the start of gnus a little?
