Andreas -  Thanks for your response.  Excuse the untutored questions, but:

(1) why does it work fine if I use "o" (gnus-summary-save-article), but fails using "B c" (gnus-summary-copy-article), even while in both cases I have used gnus-group-make-doc-group (see (2)).

(2) I am using "M-0 G f" (gnus-group-make-doc-group) to temporarily add the file I want to copy to.  (M-0 is to make sure it knows it's a babyl file.)  What is the alternative you are suggesting?
