Troubles with nnimap-0.81

[dsg@mitre.org (David S. Goldberg)]

After successfully starting gnus and the nnimap backend, I am now
unable to reconnect after the server times me out.  For now I've
backed out to 0.39; here's the backtrace (unfortunately I forgot to
save the logs; I can go back to 0.81 later today and try it again if
you need them) I get when I try to do a `g' in the *Group* buffer
after the imap server has timed out:

Signaling: (error "Buffer *Group* has no process")
  process-send-string(nil "A3 CAPABILITY
\n")
  imap-send-command("CAPABILITY")
  imap-send-command-wait("CAPABILITY")
  imap-capability(IMAP4 nil)
  ad-Orig-nnimap-open-server("linus" nil)
  nnimap-open-server("linus")
  ad-Orig-nnimap-possibly-change-server("linus")
  nnimap-possibly-change-server("linus")
  ad-Orig-nnimap-possibly-change-group("INBOX.gnus-imap" "linus")
  nnimap-possibly-change-group("INBOX.gnus-imap" "linus")
  ad-Orig-nnimap-close-group("INBOX.gnus-imap" "linus")
  nnimap-close-group("INBOX.gnus-imap" "linus")
  gnus-get-unread-articles(2)
  gnus-group-get-new-news(nil)
  call-interactively(gnus-group-get-new-news)

I also see the following in the *Warning* buffer about the same time
(wrapped by me):
 
(1) (error/warning) Error in process filter: (error Default Callback
    Called (imap exited abnormally with code 256 * OK linus Cyrus
    IMAP4 v1.5.10 server ready))
