I have gnus-asynchronous to t.

When I start reading a group -- I tried just now with
gmane.emacs.bugs -- I can read a single article just fine.
Then if I try to open the next article (say by typing "n"),
Emacs just pauses, saying:

    Waiting for async article...

I've waited several minutes before without it working.

If I C-g the wait, then try to read the chosen article again, it works.

At first I thought this was some issue with the network.
However, if I set gnus-asynchronous to nil, then everything works fine.

Try to set EMACS_IGNORE_TIMERFD=1 environment variable (see src/atimer.c
for details).

Bad :-(. This means that timerfd stuff still has some glitches.

Since I'm not a regular Gnus user, can you share your setup enough
so I can reproduce the bug?  Ideally it should be something like in
http://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=16603#5.

More information was requested, but no response was given within a few
months, so I'm closing this bug report.  If the problem still exists,
please reopen this bug report.
