*Server* buffer problems when adding server parameters

[Benjamin Rutt <brutt+news@bloomington.in.us>]

For the following, I am talking using a very recent Oort (just cvs
updated 12 hours ago).

I want to add a new server parameter to nnfolder.  (AFAIK in order to
define a new server parameter you are supposed to simply define the
variable with a defvoo in the backend .el file and you're all set?)
Anyway, I do the following:

1) (defvoo nnfolder-foo nil "foo is my variable") ;;in nnfolder.el

2) rm nnfolder.elc

3) restart emacs, M-x gnus

4) '^' to enter the server buffer, where I see (as normal):

     {nnfolder:archive} (opened)
     {nntp:news.gnus.org} (opened)
     {nndraft:} (opened)
     {nnml:} (opened)
     {nntp:News.CIS.DFN.DE} (opened)

5) 'C' to close my nnfolder:archive server (since I have read that
it's best to 'e' (edit, see next step) servers when they're closed)

6) 'e' to edit the nnfolder:archive server

7) In my editing session (BTW, I find it odd that it shows me the
*Group* buffer in the other split-window when I am editing the Server
Buffer, but that's beside the point here), I add the line
(nnfolder-foo "bar") and C-c C-c to exit edits.

8) At this point I notice two lines in the Server buffer that say
nnfolder:archive:  

     {nnfolder:archive} (closed)         <---I can 'e' this one
     {nntp:news.gnus.org} (opened)
     {nndraft:} (opened)
     {nnfolder:archive} (closed)         <---I can't 'e' this one
     {nnml:} (opened)
     {nntp:News.CIS.DFN.DE} (opened)

I can only re-edit one of these, as noted above .  When I re-edit the
one I can re-edit, I see the (nnfolder-foo "bar") sitting there as it
should.  But the extra server is puzzling.  I hit 'q' to quit gnus.

9) When I M-x gnus again, I hit '^' and notice the following in the
server buffer:

     {nnfolder:archive} (opened)
     {nntp:news.gnus.org} (opened)
     {nnfolder:archive+nnfolder+archive:saved-articles} (opened) (?)
     {nndraft:} (opened)
     {nnfolder:archive+nnfolder+archive:sent-news} (opened)      (?)
     {nnfolder:archive+nnfolder+archive:sent-mail} (opened)      (?)
     {nnfolder:archive+nnfolder+archive:sent-mail-old} (opened)  (?)
     {nnml:} (opened)
     {nntp:News.CIS.DFN.DE} (opened)

So, what happened?  All the lines I marked with a (?) look odd.  FYI,
in my nnfolder:archive server, I have 4 groups, "saved-articles",
"sent-news", "sent-mail", and "sent-mail-old".  Somehow these became
servers with funny names?  Anyone know what is going on here?  Did I
do anything wrong?

BTW, When I re-edit the top group in the list, and eliminate my new
nnfolder-foo variable and restart gnus, the server buffer is back to
normal.
