If this is what I'm seeing too, then things are starting to make
sense: the agent NOV file of no.alt.motorsykler weren't reduced in
size, because no articles were expired. The reason no, or very few
articles, were expired, was that the agent directory was filled up
with new copies fetched just after the previous time I had run
gnus-agent-expire, which were less than a week old.
The info-cyrus behaviour I observed also seems to indicate the same
thing.

At least we seem to be two. If the maintainers can't reproduce the
behaviour, maybe it'll be time to look at both our configs to see if
we have an unusual config setting in common.
