Sorry, I missed this when you first posted it.

That's pretty weird! So to make sure I've got this right: the search
only fails when you search the [Gnus] topic, and only when searching for
marks?

When a search returns no results, it probably means that there was an
error in the search routine somewhere. If you're running a very recent
Emacs, you can M-x toggle-debug-on-error to see the full backtrace. If
your Emacs isn't super recent (like the past few weeks), the error
should still show up in *Messages*, search for "nnselect-run:".
