On a topic line in the group buffer, key C-u a, to get an error. After
this, every time you enter a group you get an error like this:

Debugger entered--Lisp error: (wrong-type-argument stringp nil)
  string-match(".*" nil)
  gnus-group-name-charset(nil nil)
  gnus-group-decoded-name(nil)
  gnus-summary-buffer-name(nil)
  gnus-article-setup-buffer()
  gnus-select-newsgroup("gmane.comp.lang.scala" 1 nil)
  gnus-summary-read-group-1("gmane.comp.lang.scala" 1 t nil nil nil)
  gnus-summary-read-group("gmane.comp.lang.scala" 1 t nil nil nil nil)
  gnus-group-read-group(1 t)
  gnus-group-select-group(1)
  gnus-topic-select-group(1)
  call-interactively(gnus-topic-select-group nil nil)

The following patch fixes this bug.
