The enmity between GNUS and VM is fairly well known. :-) The problem is
that both VM and GNUS want to use the variable overlay-arrow-position.
Normally you could just make the variable buffer local and the problem
would be solved, but overlay-arrow-position is a special case.  Its
value needs to be local to several buffers, and so far I've not thought
of a clean way to accomplish this.
