One good way of seeing where things are going wrong is to edebug
`nnimap-get-groups'. When you go into the *Server* buffer and list the
groups in your local imap server, you'll be able to see the results of
the LIST command, and then see how Gnus parses those results. That
should get you closer to the source of the problem.
