Startup error (benign?) in recent Oort versions.

Startup error (benign?) in recent Oort versions.

[Lloyd Zusman]

In recent Oort versions (at least in v0.04), I get the following stack
trace when I start up gnus with debugging turned on (debug-on-quit,
debug-on-signal, and debug-on-error).  I'm not sure if this is a bona
fide problem or it's benign, but I thought I'd report it here, just in
case.  Even if it's benign, it prevents me from easily tracing other
errors.

Here's my XEmacs version:

  21.4 (patch 3) "Academic Rigor" XEmacs Lucid

Any ideas?

Since the function is defined in gnus.el, that must mean that the
function is used before it is defined (on load time).  I've now moved
the function definition up a bit.
