The cause of this lossage is the value of 'window-start' for the various gnus display buffers when certain things are done - 'delete-other-windows' for a start. XEmacs seems to optimize this such that the value is not up to date for what *should* be in the buffer at the time of the various calls, rather what *was* there prior to the action. The DOC for 'delete-other-windows' notes that 'window-start' should be set to something sane before calling. I think. This is as far as I got looking at the issue, and that was a few weeks ago now. Ain't it grand when life is *so* full? :/ Hope that helps someone find this, Daniel --=20 Our quarrel with the world is an echo of the=20 endless quarrel proceeding within us. -- Eric Hoffer
