When I connect a Mac to my UNIX $HOME with AppleShare, that #!@#$%%!!
thing walks through my directories and create .rsrc directories with
file descriptions of the files in each directory.
So Gnus comes along and regenerates the cache active file, and finds
that I have the cache groups
no.c, no.c..rsrc, comp.std.c, comp.std.c..rsrc, ...
So -- would it be OK to let Gnus ignore group names starting with "."?
I.e. replace the "^\\.\\.?$" in gnus-cache-generate-active with "^\\.".

Yup. Fix in Gnus v5.6.45.

Thanks!
BTW, the same problem may exist in some of these:
gnus-score-score-files-1,
nnheader-directory-files,
nnml-generate-nov-databases-1,
gnus-uu-scan-directory, gnus-uu-directory-files.
But I expect at least gnus-uu should handle .* files too; I haven't
checked.

I've now fixed nnml-generate-nov-databases-1 and
nnml-generate-nov-databases-1, but I think the other ones should
probably do the .* files.
