It works in 5.2.19.
I found out that in 5.2.25, shell-file-name and shell-command-switch are used
instead of "sh" and "-c". In my case, shell-file-name is set to "/bin/csh"
an shell-command-switch is "-c" and I got error from xv like "file /tmp/xxx
contains no data". I tried setting shell-command-switch to "-f -c" to
ignore my .cshrc file but it still doesn't give.
If I change shell-file-name to "sh", then x-face works again.
gnus-article-x-face-command is set to "{ echo '/* Width=48, Height=48 */';
uncompface; } | icontopbm | xv -quit -" by gnus-ems.el.
In gnus.el:
5.2.19:
------
(defun gnus-article-display-x-face (&optional force)
...
...
...
(start-process
"gnus-x-face" nil "sh" "-c" gnus-article-x-face-command))
...
5.2.25:
------
(defun gnus-article-display-x-face (&optional force)
...
...
...
(start-process
"gnus-x-face" nil shell-file-name shell-command-switch
gnus-article-x-face-command))
...
Any hints?

Set `shell-file-name' to "bash"? :-)

(1) try shell-command-switch as "-fc" rather than "-f -c"; it probably
gets passed as one argument.
(2) make sure your .cshrc produces NO output when run non-interactively on
a non-tty. 'rsh localhost cat /dev/null' is often a good test.
(3) Upgrade to XEmacs and compile with built-in x-face support :)
