I've now pushed something to safeguard a potential (but unlikely) "kill
a random buffer" thing in shr.el.  If everybody could upgrade and see
whether the problem still exist, that would be nice.

It's rather unlikely that this will fix the problem, but I've been
staring at the code, and I can't really imagine anywhere else if might
be killing off random buffers...

My thought is that there's a (kill-buffer (current-buffer))
... somewhere ... in the shr/url code.  And that the current buffer is
the wrong buffer.  It's happened before in the url code.  But I've
grepped and grepped, and I can't see any likely candidates.  And it
happens so rarely that it's virtually impossible to bisect.

Perhaps I should just read the commit messages for Emacs and Gnus for
the last week instead?
