Unfortunately it didn't.  I still get
 Wrong type argument: number-or-marker-p, "8-54ce40d61d4b92eda3bffb29c6e0b1c6"
on `gnus-sync-save'.

Here's what I did:
 1. Save the attachment to /tmp/sync-junk.patch
 2. Apply the patch:
    #+begin_src sh
      cd git/gnus
      git apply /tmp/sync-junk.patch
    #+end_src
 3. Rebuild gnus:
    #+begin_src sh
      (cd ~/git/gnus; make clean; make; cd lisp; make tags)
    #+end_src
 4. Start a new Emacs with a new Gnus
 5. Run `gnus-sync-read', followed by `g'
 6. Visit a gmane group to make things dirty
 7. Run `gnus-sync-save'. and the issue occurs:
    #+begin_example
      Wrong type argument: number-or-marker-p, "8-54ce40d61d4b92eda3bffb29c6e0b1c6"
    #+end_example
