I'm using nnir with the nnimap-backend. This works fine most of the
time, but if I repeat a previous search (in the same group/folder), I
get this error:

Debugger entered--Lisp error: (wrong-type-argument numberp nil)
  zerop(nil)
  gnus-activate-group("nnir:((query . \"from vesterheim\"))" scan)
  gnus-group-read-ephemeral-group("nnir:((query . \"from vesterheim\"))" (nnir "") t (#<buffer *Group*> . summary) nil)
  gnus-group-make-nnir-group(nil "from vesterheim")
  call-interactively(gnus-group-make-nnir-group)

I assume that gnus-parse-active returns nil in gnus-activate-group,
which triggers this error, but I cannot figure out why.

I'm using Ubuntu hardy (Gnus version 5.11, Emacs version 22.1.1)
