| When pgnus checks for new mail/news, I can't do anything in that
| invocation of emacs until pgnus finishes. Keyboard input is
| accumulated until then. When our news server is slow or if there's a
| boatload of email to download, emacs can be useless for quite a while.
Emacs is not threaded (and it probably will never be, at least not in its
current incarnation). So you have to cheat a little bit: start a second
instance of Emacs just for Gnus.
