Hi,

I'm slowly working my way towards running Emacs 24 on a regular basis.
I've updated a few packages, things seem to work mostly. The only real
obstacle was that CEDET had to be built from the trunk in order to work.
But not with Gnus.

Does this look familiar to anyone? I don't believe there was any Emacs
23 byte compiled code on the code path...
