[this report "closes out" my previous report.  Conclusion: "I'm dumb,
no bug, never mind"]

Linus> From emacs documentation:
Linus> Accepting Output from Processes
Linus> -------------------------------

Linus>   Output from asynchronous subprocesses normally arrives only while
Linus> Emacs is waiting for some sort of external event, such as elapsed
Linus> time or terminal input.  Occasionally it is useful in a Lisp program
Linus> to explicitly permit output to arrive at a specific point, or even to
Linus> wait until output arrives from a process.

Linus>  * Function: accept-process-output &optional PROCESS

Linus>      This function allows Emacs to read pending output from
Linus>      processes.  The output is inserted in the associated buffers or
Linus>      given to their filter functions.  If PROCESS is non-`nil' then
Linus>      this function does not return until some output has been
Linus>      received from PROCESS.
Linus> End emacs documentation.

Linus> Obvious?
Linus> When you are running gnus under the debugger you sometimes let the
Linus> emacs wait (for you to type d). Then the output from the process is
Linus> read and when you (finally) arrive to the accept-process-output there
Linus> is nothing more to be read so you hang.

Linus> If you really want to run gnus under the debugger you will have to set

Linus> (setq nntp-buggy-select t)
