While fooling around with dbus and server closing, I discovered that the
"closed" state is a bit fragile: I close a server (in this case a
localhost IMAP server) then immediately try to search it, and instead of
the server opening, or me getting a polite error message, I get the
error at the bottom of this report.

That error is then permanent, the server can't be re-opened. Not only
that, when I `gnus-group-restart' the error persists, AND infects my
second IMAP server on localhost, though I guess that's to be expected.
Gnus has to be explicitly quit and then restarted in order to recover.

I note that, in `nnimap-open-server', when I'm trying to open a server
that was closed, the DEFS parameter is populated. But when we get to
`nnoo-change-server', none of the global nnimap-* variables get set
correctly: nnimap-stream should be 'network, but it's 'undecided, which
is why the backtrace below shows failure on an attempted ssl connection.

If I try to open a server that's already open, the DEFS parameter is
nil, but after we reach the `nnoo-change-server' call, all the nnimap-*
vars are set correctly.

That's as far as I've gotten now. I will continue debugging this, but
I'm hanging it here first to remind myself, and in case anyone else
wants to take a whack at it.
