I did a `make distclean` and `find . -name '*.elc' -delete`, pulled
again and did a `make bootstrap`. I had to throw away ~/.newsrc.eld (and
maybe also ~/.newsrc-dribble) and now Gnus is working again.

Thanks for the quick reply. I was depending on `make` and `configure.sh`
to ensure all outdated files would get updated, but in this case it was
just a no longer existing file that was lingering around as .elc?
