Welcome back Lars!

When I applied these patches and started with a new emacs for 0.96, all my
mail groups with unread mail had "*" messages and I was unable to enter the
group.  'C-u RET' yields this bug trace:

Signaling: (error "Couldn't request group nnml:bbdb: No such group: bbdb")
  signal(error ("Couldn't request group nnml:bbdb: No such group: bbdb"))
  error("Couldn't request group %s: %s" "nnml:bbdb" "No such group: bbdb")
  gnus-select-newsgroup("nnml:bbdb" (4) nil)
  gnus-summary-read-group-1("nnml:bbdb" (4) t nil nil nil)
  gnus-summary-read-group("nnml:bbdb" (4) t nil nil nil nil)
  gnus-group-read-group((4) t)
  gnus-group-select-group((4))
  gnus-topic-select-group((4))
  call-interactively(gnus-topic-select-group)

nnml-generate-nov-databases doesn't make a difference.  What happens if I
quit and restart again?
[save, quit emacs, restart]

Now almost all of my mail groups are back to normal but two.  These groups
are both empty and missing from the Mail/active file.  Interesting.
