Hi,

	I have an account where I'm real tight on disk space. My quota
	limit makes me be on my toes every time I open gnus and it
	saves the huge .newrc or .newsrc.el

	The following patch adds new variable

		gnus-startup-file-compress-extension

	Which is by default "" and lets gnus to work as usual. It can be
	set to ".gz" or ".Z" or anything the jka-comp understands. And
	voila! Now Gnus saves lot of space!

	There was also some problem according to Elint.el 1.10, that I
	tried to correct by using (car list). Would you check that it
	really was the right correction.

	Cheers!
	jari
