Unfortunately, the code didn't work, because it requires emacs-w3m.

Well, this is now fixed, via nnrss.el, but I have a new problem.  Now,
where I used to get a link, I just get a line with nothing on it but
the word, "link."  Something destroyed my ability even to get links
from the RSS.  I can't install emacs-w3m here, because I'm using
Aquamacs on Emacs 22.

Anyway, nnrss.el can be found at:
http://ftp.gnus.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/gnus/lisp/nnrss.el?rev=7.47&content-type=text/x-cvsweb-markup

Unfortunately, it has had a negative side-effect: all of the
subscriptions that I had already tried, it will not let me subscribe
to them.  When I do GR, I recieve the message "Group already exists!"
"L" of course, does not reveal those groups.  when I grep the News and
gnus dirs for the name of one of these sites, I get no results.

Any ideas?
