I tried reading some News with Gnus on 20.0-b92 built straight from
the distribution, with my patch applied (both with and without MULE
support, on Solaris 2.5), and cannot reproduce this behavior (I did
get to read plenty of dull messages in various news groups I normally
stay out of, and that nearly put *me* to sleep.)

If you can, please let me know which actions are required to reproduce
the hang from an Emacs compiled with my patch and started with -q.
