Hi,

I just seem to have gotten one of those Gnus DoS mails.  Gnus sits
there with 100% CPU after "Generating Summary...done".  It's no
general hanging, just for that one group. It's my second-youngest
mail there, so "2 g" (and "3 g" etc.) hangs it while "1 g" works
fine. C-g works fine too, no mails though. This has never happened
to me before.

This was with Oort 0.01, and I remember ShengHuo fixing something
for mail like that (but that was for mail I think). I thus upgraded
to current CVS, but it's still the same.

I listed my messages, and the 2nd-youngest one was some spam from
Korea. I moved it away from ~/Mail, and copied another message over
it so as to create no gap. I moved the Incoming* file away which contained
that message. Still... no cookie.

This is with Emacs 21.1.1 on Debian unstable.

Here is the last part of the backtrace from when I interrupt it:

I'm attaching the mail gzipped.

TIA,
  Colin
