Well, err.  Hm.  I'm not sure if it's the right thing to do.  OT1H,
Gnus 5.10 is a released (beta?) version, rather than a development
version like Oort.  Only bugfixes are supposed to go into Gnus 5.10.
But OTOH, maybe the release status should only be assigned to the
tarballs?

(In case it wasn't clear, setting mail-source-delete-incoming
protects you from losing mail due to the unstableness of Gnus, and
the variable should default to t for stable versions of Gnus.)
