1. Start Emacs in X, M-: (frame-width) returns 80 2. Start Gnus, (M-x gnus) 3. Open one of the groups 4. Frame width increases, frame-width returns > 80. Some times it increases by 1 sometimes by more. 5. Exit group and enter the same group again. The frame width does not increase. 6. Exit group and enter a different group. The frame width *might* increase. It seems that the amount the frame increases by depends on the contents of the group, but I am not sure what exactly to look for in the group.
