Subject: Limiting, catching up and undo behaviour

Hi!

Catching up articles after limiting the summary (`/ t') used to catch
up _all_ unread articles of that group regardless of visible or not.
I've now upgraded to Emacs 21 and now only visible articles are
catched up.  The doc string says:

,----
| c runs the command gnus-summary-catchup-and-exit
|    which is an interactive compiled Lisp function in `gnus-sum'.
| (gnus-summary-catchup-and-exit &optional ALL QUIETLY)
| 
| Mark all unread articles in this group as read, then exit.
| If prefix argument ALL is non-nil, all articles are marked as read.
| If QUIETLY is non-nil, no questions will be asked.
`----

Why did that behaviour change?

Maybe this is related:

After catching up I say `C-_' in the group buffer and for every second
try Gnus produces the following backtrace:

,----
| Debugger entered--Lisp error: (void-variable group)
|   (gnus-request-set-mark group (list (list ... ... ...)))
|   (progn (gnus-info-set-marks (quote ...) (quote ...) t) (gnus-info-set-read (quote ...) (quote ...)) (gnus-get-unread-articles-in-group (quote ...) (gnus-active "de.comm.infosystems.www.authoring.misc")) (gnus-request-set-mark group (list ...)) (gnus-group-update-group "de.comm.infosystems.www.authoring.misc" t))
|   (lambda nil (progn (gnus-info-set-marks ... ... t) (gnus-info-set-read ... ...) (gnus-get-unread-articles-in-group ... ...) (gnus-request-set-mark group ...) (gnus-group-update-group "de.comm.infosystems.www.authoring.misc" t)))()
|   gnus-undo(1)
|   call-interactively(gnus-undo)

Cheers, Ray
