And using the `rx' macro makes it even easier to create regexps :)

The latter, it seems.  Not that I played around with it much, I only
found that gcc-self was ignored in the particular posting style which is
the only one I have so far that sets headers other than Gcc:.  I can try
it out and eventually send a bug report.

On a side note, it seems that `gnus-message-archive-group' is ignored
when group parameters use gcc-self, but since I can't get archiving to
work yet without messing everything up, I don't really know ...
