Well, I could have checked from your minor mode list that you do not
use Auto Revert. Of course there is no guarantee that your problem
has anything to do with timers. It may still be worth while to check
timer-list and timer-idle-list when the problem occur. If none of
these timers can mess up
I forgot to look at at:
In GNU Emacs 22.0.50.23 (i686-pc-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 2.6.2)

I fixed Auto Revert mode 28 hours ago. Do you use Auto Revert? Then
the problem _might_ go away with updating your CVS. Although, _if_ Auto
Revert can do it, then the gnus timer I referenced

Just a very wild guess, just in case: is there any possibility for a
timer to run during that code and mess up the match data? I do not
know the code well enough to check whether it allows timers to run and
whether it uses the match data at some time after that. The
unpredictability, combined wit
