I understand. As for me, putting ";;; -*- lexical-binding: t -*-" is
difficult. Because the file (.gnus.el or .emacs) isn't new. It consists
of my code and the other parts that already exists. If I (or someone) put
";;; -*- lexical-binding: t -*-", the other parts will be influenced too.

So I want to leave my code as it is. Thank you anyway.
