Yes, the hourglass pointer usually appears if you move the mouse (here, it's enough to move it slightly, I don't need to move it off the Emacs frame and back). > But, anyway, is there anything Gnus could be doing that would disable > the hourglass when it's doing some prolonged operation? What exactly is the prolonged operation Emacs does in the described scenario? Some of them don't cause this pointer to appear for boring technical reasons. I'm also not sure, but the original report seemed to imply that previous versions of Gnus did display the hourglass?
