It turns out that the problem is that I do:
(setq nnmh-be-safe t)
I did this because I use NMH from the command line to move and delete
messages, and repack folders, and I thought it would be needed so gnus
would not get confused. Was I wrong?
After the update, however, with nnmh-be-safe set, gnus just decides that
all the messages in the folder are unread.
