bug: enabling adaptive scoring via score file doesn't work

[Alex Schroeder <alex@gnu.org>]

I just updated Gnus from CVS.  Enabling adaptive scoring via my score
file doesn't work.

First, the evidence that adaptive scoring doesn't work.  Assume this
article in the summary buffer:

    03-Aug   47: Jonathan LF King     Re: undo an undo

Using "V t" I get the message:

 "No score rules apply to the current article (default score 0)."

I then check what score file is being used.  I use "V e" and my
emacs.SCORE file is opened.  (This is correct.  It is the score file I
set via topic parameters.)  It reads, more or less, like this:

(("from"
  ...
  ("Grossjohann" nil nil s))
 ("subject"
  ...
  ("sql" nil nil s))
 ("references"
  ("<m2[0-9a-z]+\\.fsf\\(_-_\\)?@.*snail\\.nowhere\\.ch>" nil nil r))
 ("message-id"
  ("<m2[0-9a-z]+\\.fsf\\(_-_\\)?@.*snail\\.nowhere\\.ch>" nil nil r))
 (adapt t)
 (adapt-file "/home/alex/News/emacs.ADAPT"))

This should switch adaptive scoring on and use the emacs.ADAPT file.
I open the emacs.ADAPT file.  It is about 35k.  I search for the
string "undo an undo".  Here it is:

(("subject" ... ("undo an undo" -6970 730699 f) ...))

But somehow, this score is not applied.

The weird thing is this, however.  I kill the article using "C-k" and
exit Gnus.  I look at the emacs.ADAPT file again.  Here it is:

(("subject" ... ("undo an undo" -7970 730699 f) ...))

This is correct!  Here is my gnus-default-adaptive-score-alist:

'(... (gnus-killed-mark (subject -1000)) ...)

Therefore, the adaptive scores are updated as I leave the group, but
when I enter the group, the scores are not applied.

Help!

Alex.
