Yes, I did use a some days old version when I run into trouble and
did a cvs update and tried it before posting to the list.
Maybe the files where damaged earlier though, I do not know for sure.

After a *very* long time... I come to the *Gnus edit form*
The bug shows up in the bookmark entry:

[ ... ]
  (bookmark
   (649 . 0)
   (649 . 0)
   (649 . 0)
   [... continues like this ...]

I never ever used bookmarks, as far as I know.
OK I deleted the bookmark thing.

No.

That's what I'd like to know...

The only thing I could imagine to be possibly related is the following:
I have received a windows zip file as attachment in this group.
As I couldn't find out how to unzip that on Linux (somebody?) I have
tried to save it to my dos partition.  This failed, because this
user has no write access there. So I saved it to /tmp.  Thats when the
trouble started, AFAIR.  It was *not* article 649.  This one must have
been deleted a long time ago.

Yes I did that too, and it helped.

Thanks a lot for your help, Robert
