In today's CVS gnus, I can't use the following in gnus-parameters
(banner . "^_____________+\nDo You Yahoo.*\n\\(^.*\n\\)+\\'")
When I try to enter a group, I get...
Invalid use of `\' in replacement text
... but if I don't use \\( and \\), then it works. Of course that
doesn't remove the whole banner.
However, this works well in the released Oort v 0.03

I just tried out your banner regexp on Gnus 5.8.8 and it didn't work for
me so I tweaked it and created my own version(s).
One thing I noticed is that the Yahoo! email I receive does not end in a
new line (\n) character so that is probably why your banner doesn't work.
Safer:
(banner . "^_____________+\nDo You Yahoo.*\n.*\n.*\\(\n.*\\)?")
Aggressive:
(banner . "^_____________+\nDo You Yahoo.*\n.*\\(\n.*\\)+")
