IIUC, there must be a form in your init file which somehow loads an old
version of gnus-util.

You could try the following:

$ emacs -q

C-x C-f <your init file>

M-: (while (not (or (eobp) (featurep 'gnus-util)))
  (eval (read (current-buffer))))


(I assume that your init file does not set the lexical-binding file
local variable)

This should leave point after the offending form.

In my case, I was surprised to learn that gnus-util was pulled in by
(ffap-bindings).
