I determined that the lock-up I got was due to leafnode timing out
before nnimap finished its startup.  My leafnode had been configured
to timeout after five minutes of idle time (the default, I beleive);
increasing that timeout to 20 minutes allowed gnus to finish its init.

The bug seems to be that with the async code gnus cannot deal with the
other side of an nntp session closing the socket.  At least not while
gnus is still on its first iteration through its list of servers.
