================================================================
Dear Bug Team!

I just tried running gnus in tty mode (xemacs -nw), and it quit during
startup with

No such face: gnus-splash-face

I'm left with a writable *Group* buffer that contains the usual
ASCII-art gnu.

This happens with "xemacs -vanilla -nw", too.

I hope this is easier to fix than my codeset problem! :-)

(For the gnus folks, this is the same version of gnus as for my
codeset bug report.  XEmacs package 1.87, roughly gnus 5.10.7.)

stack-trace-on-error yields:

  # bind (standard-output stack-trace-on-signal debug-on-signal stack-trace-on-error debug-on-error)
  put-text-property(1 786 face gnus-splash-face)
  # bind (y x)
  gnus-group-startup-message()
  # bind (buffer-read-only)
  # (unwind-protect ...)
  gnus-splash()
  # bind (slave dont-connect arg)
  gnus-1(nil nil nil)
  # bind (slave dont-connect arg)
  gnus(nil)
  # bind (command-debug-status)
  call-interactively(gnus)
  command-execute(gnus t)
  # bind (_execute_command_keys_ _execute_command_name_ prefix-arg)
  execute-extended-command(nil)
  # bind (command-debug-status)
  call-interactively(execute-extended-command)
  # (condition-case ... . error)
  # (catch top-level ...)

Looks like an XEmacs issue to me.

Reply-to set to xemacs-beta and mike.kupfer; no point in bugging
ding with a thread on XEmacs problems that seem to occur before Gnus
ever gets loaded.  We'll come back if there seem to be Gnus issues.

I don't see this, also on 21.4.18, gnus 5.10.7, but XEmacs package
1.85.  I'll upgrade when I get a chance and try again.

Do you know what's going on here?  Is this all from your init file
from "Loading executable" up to here?

IIRC this may indicate a problem with the menu code.  I don't think
this would affect the gnus-splash-face which should be defface'd when
Gnus is loaded, though.  Still it may be worth chasing these down.
