I use topics in the group buffer, and I fetch mail with 'g'. If the cursor is on a line with a group name, no trouble. If the cursor is on a topic name or a blank line, I get one of those number-or-marker-p errors. My guess is that gnus is trying find out if there are unread articles but doesn't have a valid group name. Only a guess. There are many possible workarounds and I have one in place, but still. Anyone else see this, or is it just my weird and convoluted setup[1]?
