I can barely start up the latest CVS versions of Oort.  I have to try
over and over, and maybe one out of 10 times or so, gnus finally comes
up.  When it doesn't start, either the XEmacs window completely
disappears, or els I get the following error.  I'm using XEmacs 21.4.3
under RedHat Linux 7.2.

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance.
