Ok, so I'm trying not to use naughty words.
A user has sent me this backtrace from Emacs 20.2.89:
Signaling: (error "Invalid character: 4200, 4831827856, 0x0")
insert(" €0 : ")
(progn (insert (format "%c%c%c%s%5s: " gnus-tmp-marked-mark gnus-tmp-subscribed gnus-tmp-process-marked gnus-group-indentation gnus-tmp-number-of-unread)) (gnus-put-text-property (point) (progn ... ...) gnus-mouse-face-prop gnus-mouse-face) (insert gnus-tmp-grouplens "\n"))
[...]
gnus-group-insert-group-line("dummy.group" 0 nil 0 nil)
What is happening here is that Gnus is trying to insert \200 into a
buffer, and Emacs (no longer) will let it. What is now the proper
incantation?
It now does something like
(insert 128)
Is
(insert ?\200)
allowed?
