I don't know exactly what I should do about it. Gnus should
definitely figure out that something odd is going on when it sends out
commands and doesn't get any data back. Perhaps the commands should
have a timeout thingie (which would not be enabled by default), and
if a command times out, Gnus should just hang up and reconnect.
Would that do the trick?
