Ah, I see it.  It's parsing that file twice, once to get the login name
and again to get the password.

The current auth-source API didn't allow me to batch this operation, so
I had to modify the API.  You'll have to get the latest Gnus from CVS
(auth-source.el plus the files that use the new API, including
nntp.el).  The changes will make their way into Emacs CVS as well, but I
don't know when.

I tried it and it works for me, so please try it out and let me know if
you find any problems.

Thanks
Ted
