I.e. it seems like the code has to check for which version of Emacs
that is running. A not very beatiful solution IMNSHO. The reason I
brought up the issue is that nnfolder groups is attacked by \201 in
the name so is it a better solution to do the mutlibyte process in the
nnfolder code before the group names are sent to the higher levels?

Gnus shall expect to find non-A-Z in the group names of the
mailfolders and process it accordingly. From a data arbritation (sp?)
point of view, I would say that the best place to process the various
characters are in the lower levels and then have all backends return
multibyte (or whatever) and send it to the buffer where the buffer
display code converts it to whatever the user can handle.

Please consider that I'm no expert of the internal functionality of Gnus.
