This just means you have some stale *elc files lying around, with old
macro definitions in them. If you run "make bootstrap", or delete the
*elc files in the gnus directory and run plain "make", that should clear
it up.

I don't think nnselect has many (any?) user-facing options. It's very
much plumbing. Besides the fact that you can now make persistent search
groups, there should be nothing you can/should adjust.
