I thought this also.

Did you think glueing the vars makes any difference? :-)

Okay here we go (there are some version variables; I include them also
just to be complete).
These are 32 variables which are not boundp in my current XEmacs Gnus
session.  Maybe if I used some of the backends they would be boundp.
That would make sense at least for the version variables so I think they
can be safely ignored.

The other variables are boundp I write them afterwards; at
least boundp doesn't mean the variable gets used in some way or another.

(I wanted to attach the file but that was not possible; I have to check
why but first have to do a cvs up.  XEmacs just seems to be in an
endless loop).
