Hi Ralf,
Here are steps to reproduce the bug.
1. Add the following lines to ~/.gnus.el
(gnus-demon-add-handler 'gnus-group-get-new-news 2 t)
(gnus-demon-init)
2. fire up gnus
3. cut the network
Then when demon tries to get new News, emacs hangs. What's outrageous is
Ctrl-g won't be able to stop the process.
If you put the network back on, emacs will come to life again.
Regards,
