[OS X Emacs] Emacs.app 9.0-rc3 released

[Thomas A. Schmitz]

Hi Adrian,

this appears to be a bug in the latest version: I can't read news with  
gnus. The *Group* buffer comes up alright, but whenever I try to view  
the messages, I get this in the minibuffer:

"Autoloading failed to define function gnus-point-at-bol"

gnus worked flawlessly in the previous version.

All best, and thanks for your work!

Thomas
