Dave, it seems you're not aware of the following change (note the
last line):

/----[ gnus/lisp/ChangeLog ]
| 2002-01-26  Lars Magne Ingebrigtsen  <larsi@gnus.org>
| 
| 	* nnheader.el (nnheader-insert-nov-file): Increased cutoff to
| 	32K.
| 
| 	* gnus-sum.el (gnus-summary-expire-articles): Clean up.
| 
| 	* nnmail.el (nnmail-article-group): Decode headers before running
| 	split rules over them.
| 	(nnmail-mail-splitting-charset): New variable.
| 
| 	* smiley.el: Replaced with smiley-ems.el.
\----

I guess the other folks are talking about this.  Well.  Not sure what
to do here.

Fabrice, do you now understand Dave's reaction better?
