I thought this problem had gone away when I quit using:
(setq gnus-read-active-file nil).  But seems to have returned to one
nntp group.  gnu.emacs.gnus

Entering that group with C-u <RET> fails to display some 1800+
messages in the directory.  The .agentview and .overview files there
both start and end with these numbers:
((20042 . t)
(22193 . t))

This group appears in the groups listed for one category so is under
agent umbrella

Only 270 messages are displayed  ... Just what is on the nntp server.

This would seem like some kind of bug in gnus ability to display
articles that have been expunged from server, if it weren't for the
fact that all other agentized groups are displayed in full.
Everything on .agentview and .overview is shown in the summary buffer.

I must be overlooking some factor that is causing the abreviated
display in gnu.emacs.gnus.    Any guesses as to what it might be?
