Hi 

When starting gnus I obtain the following error trace (debut-on-signal
t)

When I go to the server list buffer gmane is closed, when I try to open
it I receive another error which I attache, however the second intend is
then successful. This is really annoying and started a couple of weeks
ago.

This seems like it's a problem in XEmacs?  Gnus doesn't really support
XEmacs any more, so I'm closing this bug report.
