Thanx, Jesper, I now get backtrace up.

First of all, I don't find this program when typing M-x
mail-source-... I only get these possible completions:
mail-source-delete-old-incoming
mail-source-report-new-mail

OK, but I don't see any difference between the different manuals on the
nnml-backend. Here's my mail source settings:
(add-to-list 'gnus-secondary-select-methods '(nnml ""))
I don't see anything wrong with it, but it doesn't work. One thing: I
use maildir as my incoming mail folder at $HOME/mail/INBOX, but my $MAIL
environment variable says "echo $MAIL" is "$HOME/mail/INBOX" and not
"$HOME/mail/INBOX/". But that was no problem with version 5.6.
Here's the backtrace from emacs-mail-crashbox at startup:
