I set out to chase this error down.  What I found was that
nntp-server-xover was nil.  I didn't understand why that would be the
case, so I ended that Gnus session, which was a day or so old, exited
XEmacs entirely, and started again, intending to find out when
nntp-server-xover was nilified.

The error doesn't occur in the fresh XEmacs at all.

/mutter/  irreproducible bugs  /mumble/

Are there circumstances in which XOVER can fail even though the server
accepts the command?  I can only imagine that, at some point when Gnus 
sent an XOVER, though INN would have accepted it, nonetheless INN must 
have returned some complaint which Gnus (mis-?)interpreted as an
complete XOVER failure.
