With which version did you compile Gnus? I'm guessing with the Emacs23.2
one, which could explain the above error because I think the EIEIO from
Emacs23.2 is not compatible with Emacs24 (while byte-code from older
versions should be compatible, at least I noticed some problems after
the lexbind merge in this area).

You could first try if compiling with Emacs24 fixes your problem.
