There is a bug that means Gnus will give a wrong type of argument
error message when it is started or re-started and the connection is
not up. Gnus didn't do this before.
If Gnus is already running and is re-started then Gnus quits. This bug
also means that mail cannot be inced properly. If the NNTP server is
running but not allowing mode reader commands for some reason then
Gnus cannot be started/re-started either.
