Subject: (gnus-re-read-newsrc-el-file): New function.
X-Git-Tag: t-gnus-6_14_1-16~4
X-Git-Url: http://git.chise.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=d28461f2ffe383f69e738539a084362a8a84bc20;p=elisp%2Fgnus.git-

(gnus-re-read-newsrc-el-file): New function.
(gnus-read-newsrc-el-file): If it fails, attempt to re-read the file using
`gnus-re-read-newsrc-el-file'.  In that case, the compiled format specs in
the file which may be created by the other Gnusae should be ignored.
