Same happens here, and I use nnml and total-expire, so no, I don't
think is auto-expiry related. I tried tracing the code from
`gnus-summary-exit' on, and unfortunately I couldn't find where the
problem lies, the group info is updated correctly, so maybe in the
last face (when the file is written) dormant marks are lost. :-(

I added `gnus-summary-save-newsrc' to my `gnus-summary-exit-hook' a
few weeks ago, and I noticed this problem last week, so this might be
related, but I don't have time to test this right now, anyone?
