I managed to whack the messages -- IIRC I ended up setting all the
messages as expirable and running `gnus-summary-expire-articles-now'.
Still don't know why total-expire wouldn't work on its own.  My plan
is to upgrade to the latest Gnus (I'm currently using 5.9.0) from CVS
and, if I don't see anything getting deleted in a couple of days
(whatever expiry-wait is set to) I'll root through the elisp code with
a debugger and see what's what.

Thanks for your help.
