I can't reproduce this (it reconnects immediately for me), is this a
proper step-by-step procedure to trigger this?

1 start gnus
2 wait half an hour or whatever the timeout is
3 enter a nnimap group or pressing `g' or something
<here it hangs a looong time before the connection is lost>

Could you evaluate `(setq debug-on-quit t)' before #3 and send me the
backtrace when you press C-g?

I've added some more checking on the function that waits for process
output in 0.89, could you see if that solve the problem?
