I've just upgraded my Emacs to 20.4 and now my Summary buffers look
like this:
----start
!*+Q Q Q Q Q Q Q Q Q Q Q !*+!*+Q Q Q Q !*+
----end
No author or subject, and no newline. I think I've seen this before,
but can't remember what was needed to fix it. I'm using pgnus 0.88 -
is this sufficient?
gnus-summary-line-format's value is
"%U%R%z%>%(%[%-20,20a: %-4,4L%]%) %s\n"

This really sounds like your `gnus-summary-line-format' doesn't have a
newline at the end...

... but since it does, I'm totally confused & bewildered. I've never
seen anything like that. Are you still seeing it, lo, after all these
weeks?

Er, no. I'd forgotten about it until you mentioned it just now. I
can't remember what was wrong or what I did to fix it though (except I
think it was my fault, rather than something that required a patch to
Gnus.)

As I recall, the problem was that the %> in your format string was
incorrectly treated as a closing delimiter.

Good memory! This *is* a Gnus bug AFAICS (perhaps it needs to change
symbol tables in that code). My workaround was simply to not use
"%>", but that's not what I'd want in a perfect world.

The %< %> specs were taken by the new balloon-help thing, which made
things go wonky.
I've now moved these specs to %« and %», which is obviously a bad
idea, but all the other parenthesis-thingies were taken. Ideas?

I think I've got it - in gnus-parse-complex-format, we (re-search-forward
"%\\([0-9]+\\)?\\([{}()<>]\\)" nil t) for spec letters that are matched
pairs. But ">" isn't matched with "<" in gnus-summary-line-format!
