I cannot reproduce it on: This is because Gnus now sets buffer-save-without-query for the dribble file. This is desired behavior and hence only a documentation bug. The doc-string for save-some-buffers should say something like "Asking can be disabled for a buffer by setting the buffer-local variable `buffer-save-without-query' to a non-nil value." -David
