Since updating, I've run into a couple problems.  First one I think I figured out, but I wonder if it might still have some relevance - I was seeing undefined function errors.  I fixed that by recompiling with a running Emacs that had bbdb loaded.  However, now it seems that the bbdb matching function is no longer matching addresses that are clearly in my bbdb.  Here's a snippets from *Messages*:

gnus-registry-post-process-group: no matches for sender 'info@hfcu.org'.
gnus-registry-post-process-group: no matches for recipients 'david <david.goldberg6@verizon.net>'.
spam-split: calling the spam-check-BBDB function
Wrote /home/dsg/.Mail/spam/22071

info@hfcu.org is definitely in my bbdb.

Would I just be better off exporting the bbdb to a whitelist file?

Thanks,
