It does use dribble, the problem is probably with auto-save. There's
a newly introduced bug in sgnus that has the effect of disabling
auto-save on the dribble file on XEmacs, maybe it has the same effect
on your Emacs too.
The easiest way to tell whether you need this patch or not is to start
Gnus, select a group/article, and then look in your auto-save directory
for a long filename with dribble in it.
Clip and save, this one might be needed for awhile.
