Dear Eric,

thanks for looking at this!

How do I find out whether anything is special about the level of those
groups? For me,

gnus-topic-mode is nil
gnus-level-subscribed is 5

The top three lines of my newsgroup list look like this:

     193: nnimap+mail.switch.ch:INBOX
      19: nnimap+mail.switch.ch:switch/network
      27: nnimap+mail.switch.ch:net/freertr

Reproducing the issue is as easy as typing "n" and then "p".  The cursor
will be stuck on the second line.  I can try narrowing this case, but
it's hard for me to get gnus working again from emacs -q :-)

I do note that the issue goes away when I revert a bit of your change,
as follows.  I haven't found out *why* that is necessary to get the old
behavior back...
