Yup.  The issue is that Gnus will sometimes convert these ranges into
lists, and when the UIDs are very large, that blows up.  The real fix
here is to change Gnus to never do that, but always work on ranges.
It's a rather daunting task, though, since so many of Gnus' innards work
on lists of article numbers, not ranges.
