It says > `gnus-registry-extra-entries-precious' would default to (marks) but it > defaults to (mark)] There were some bugs with registry pruning and precious entries, but we fixed those quite a while ago. If you're running Emacs master, you should have the Gnus that incorporates those fixes. On the other hand, what you say above about the docstring makes me wonder, as in Gnus master it doesn't say it would default to (marks). You're not loading an external Gnus installation, are you? Eric
