These changes:
2006-05-30 Katsumi Yamaoka <yamaoka@jpl.org>
* gnus-agent.el (directory-files-and-attributes): Move forward.
2006-05-29 Kevin Greiner <kevin.greiner@compsol.cc>
* gnus-agent.el (Added gnus-agent-flush*) to purge agent info.
(gnus-agent-read-agentview): Fixed handling of end-of-file error.
(gnus-agent-read-local): All symbols allocated in my-obarray
(gnus-agent-set-local): Skip invalid entries (min and/or max is nil).
(gnus-agent-regenerate-group): Check numeric names to see if they are
messages or groups.
(gnus-agent-total-fetched-for): Ignore 'dummy.group' (there should be a
better way of do this...)
appear to cause problems for me when I start Gnus, I get the backtrace
below. If I revert to 7.57 of gnus-agent.el, it works.

The gmane.ietf.techspec group was created recently, wasn't it?
I got a similar error and reported it in this list[1] a moment
ago together with a way to reproduce that error. A workaround I
tried is to remove an entry of the group in question from the
~/.newsrc.eld file.

No, not really, the group didn't exist in the local Agent cache. Not
all groups will exist locally, so code cannot assume they can access
the agent cache for all groups (or it should create the directory when
it needs it). I didn't look at the code changes, so I don't know what
it does, nor what is intended...

It happened to a lot of groups for me, so it isn't a good workaround.
Reverting to 7.57 solves it though.

This is causing me problems as well. In my case, startup failed on my
imap INBOX, and then after I did mkdir on that on another imap box.
Reverting to 'cvs update -D 5/29' got me working Gnus.

Kevin, could you please fix this problem in a proper way?

I see.

Here's another workaround, which should do the trick even if
there're a lot of such groups.
(defadvice gnus-cache-file-contents (around check-file-existence activate)
"Do nothing unless FILE exists."
(when (file-exists-p (ad-get-arg 0))
ad-do-it))
