Editor is Xemacs 21.1.7 or 8. Gnus is anything from the last few months. Doing "G c" on an nnimap group in the Group buffer builds the customize screen up to "highlight regexps." then displays Wrong type argument: listp "428571428" in the minibuffer. I can make changes in the buffer, but attempts to save fail with "symbol's definition is void: nil" and it's necessary to abort to get out of the buffer. Ideas?
