I had exactly the same problem a while back. (well before the recent
versions of rgnus) I use Emacs, not XEmacs, and upgrading to 19.34
fixed the problem entirely.

I remember talking to Steve about this (regarding XEmacs), and the
strange part is that it looked like the relevant part of Emacs that
were fixed were identical to those in XEmacs, but XEmacs users still
occasionally see this behavior, while it is gone in Emacs 19.34.

But the literal "XXX" returned from (current-time-zone) makes me
pretty sure that this is the same bug, and that it is a bug in
whatever Emacs you are using, not in Gnus.
