Nope, nothing in the connection buffer...

Weird -- first error doesn't correctly enter the debugger...
But on the second try th traceback looks like this (the moved message
in question was probably 10423):

Signaling: (wrong-type-argument number-char-or-marker-p Re:)
  gnus-sorted-complement((10421 10422 Re: MB ANN: Announcing Multimedia) (10414 10415 10416 10417 10418 10419 10420 10421 10422 10423))
  gnus-select-newsgroup("INBOX" 10 nil)
  gnus-summary-read-group-1("INBOX" 10 nil nil nil nil)
  gnus-summary-read-group("INBOX" 10 nil nil nil nil nil)
  gnus-group-read-group(10 nil nil)
  gnus-topic-read-group(10)
  call-interactively(gnus-topic-read-group)

and something seems to be wrong with the debug tracing (current
CVS)....  

...arghpssfft... I don't have time to track down the meta-problems at
the moment -- more later unless you can replicate the problem and
want to take a shot...  

(The problem doesn't happen *all* the time on moves and deletes ... I
haven't quite narrowed it down to when...)
