Hi,
from time to time I noticed that my (main) score file gets corrupted.
It's happens very rarely (once in several weeks or months) and I don't
know how to reproduce it.
It's not a big problem for me (just copy the backup from yesterday),
but maybe someone has an idea?
Here's a shortened version of the diff between the backup file and the
corrupt one. Note the bogus lines containing the string "...)":

Well, can you reproduce it by setting `(setq print-length 1)'?
As far as I heard, that variable (and possibly print-level)
tends to be altered for some unknown reason.

I have no confidence, but it seems that print-length and also
print-level should be bound to nil in the gnus-score-string
function as follows:
(If it is right, such a problem won't occur even if print-length
is set to any number.)

Yes, after `M-x (setq print-length 1 print-level 1) RET' I have a
similar effect:

I've applied your patch plus some debug statement:
(if (= gnus-score-index 9)
(let (print-length print-level)
(gnus-message
9 "In gnus-score-string: print-length=`%s', print-level=`%s'"
print-length print-level)
(sit-for 3)
(setq this (prin1-to-string this)))) ; ick.
But I'm afraid this isn't the relevant code (or at least not the only
one). With gnus-verbose is set to 10, I don't see the debug output
(after doing `IrS' and `V t'):

Please use the following one to show the values of print-length
and print-level. :)
(if (= gnus-score-index 9)
(progn
(let (print-length print-level)
(setq this (prin1-to-string this))) ; ick.

I am worried similarly. I'd like to investigate again widely,
later.

Thanks, I've added this.

I still don't see the expected debug output after (setq print-length
10 print-level 3). But all.SCORE still gets corrupted. I don't know
what exactly `print-length' and `print-level' do, but it seems that
`print-length' (=10) is relevant:

I've now altered gnus-prin1-to-string to bind these variables to nil,
and use that function throughout.
