The following message contains two `Rene ... writes:' lines.  The
first one is blue, the second one is black.  Do you also see that?
Why does it happen?

(Also, the first `writes:' is a button, the second isn't.)

gnus-kill-all-overlays should be an alias of
gnus-xmas-kill-all-overlays (in gnus-xmas.el) when Gnus runs in
XEmacs, so XEmacs' FSF compatible overaly package is not required.
But it possibly is a problem of loading order.  Could you check why
gnus-util.el is loaded after gnus-xmas.el?
