No.  I was going to post a followup.  That directory is (was) a link to a
directory that used to exist before I rearranged all my partitions.
It exists now, and I can use the CVS gnus.  Which is good because it
does several good things that the latest ognus release doesn't.  But
I'm probably not the only person in the world who rearranges
partitions and doesn't fix all the links to the old partitions.  And
gnus never complained about this before today.
