When downloding articles for the agent I get lots of the following
messages on the console:

Comparison between integer and character is constant nil (?2 and 0)
   [nntp-retrieve-articles, gnus-retrieve-articles, gnus-agent-fetch-articles, gnus-agent-fetch-group-1, <compiled-function of unknown origin>, call-interactively]

This is XEmacs 21.2-beta3 but I have also seen it in 21.0 (also on a
different news-server).

If anybody wants to reproduce this, remember to compile with -debug to
get the ebola notices.
