He's not distraught, which he was before, but he's not happy, because
now he has to implement something parallel to the Group Parameters so
he can figure out which groups to turn on the egroups snarfing for.
He is, perhaps, mildly content.  He's also read something somewhere
saying that one of the indicators of various psychoses is the tendency 
to refer to oneself in the third person, but he doesn't think it means 
anything.

How about an accessor function?  Something like

      (gnus-article-get-group-local-variable 'egroups-group)

I'd code it up & mail it in, but I don't have, and can't get, the
paperwork.

Matt
