I have run into a problem which I think relates to the function
`nnml-request-list'. When I try to read my mail, emacs bails out
somewhere near the end with a wrong number of arguments error. As far as
I have been able to trace it, it seems to relate to the aforementioned
function.
The strange thing is that it has only happened now. I run emacs and gnus
successfully on several platforms and have done so for years. Currently,
I am in the process of upgrading to emacs24 also at home and presumably
I have some other combinations of groups there that exposes the
problem. I have tried upgrading to the latest and greatest gnus from git
but without any improvements.
From grep'ing a little in the code, I see that `nnml-request-list' is
defined to take a single argument, and indeed help reports:
nnml-request-list is a compiled Lisp function in `nnml.el'.
(nnml-request-list &optional SERVER)
however in nndir.el, I see this:
(nnoo-map-functions nndir
(nnml-retrieve-headers 0 nndir-current-group 0 0)
(nnml-request-article 0 nndir-current-group 0 0)
(nnmh-request-group nndir-current-group 0 0)
(nnml-close-group nndir-current-group 0)
(nnml-request-list (nnoo-current-server 'nndir) nndir-directory)
(nnml-request-newsgroups (nnoo-current-server 'nndir) nndir-directory))
which suspiciously looks as if it calls `nnml-request-list' with two
arguments.
Am I missing something obvious here?

`(setq debug-on-error t)', repeat the bug and post the resulting
backtrace.
