Hi Lars, 

I can reproduce this. And I don't know how to debug this since it's not
an error.

It happens on collection of new emails by bbdb. When RET is hit in
summary buffer, the article is displayed as normal but bbdb buffer
covers summary buffer. If I press SPC it bbdb removes the buffer and
pops up the question "Add address xxx to "yyy"? (y or n)". If I press
"q" bbdb disappears but "-> " in minibuffer stays and some funny stuff
starts happening. Gnus shortcuts are not working properly anymore and
bbdb questions popup till I hit C-g several times.

Any ideas?

I've got this in my bbdb config:

GNU Emacs 24.0.94.1 (i686-pc-linux-gnu) 

Ma Gnus v.04 as from 28th of February and the most recent head, both
have this behavior.
