Hey, after this happens, would you eval `gnus-secondary-select-methods'
again, and see if it's been altered?
My guess is that `gnus-ask-server-for-new-groups' actually permanently
adds the value of `gnus-check-new-newsgroups' to
`gnus-secondary-select-methods' -- ie, it's shadowing the previous
server definition with a new one, which would be bad. Would you take a
look at your secondary select methods and see if there are multiple
(nnml) entries in it?
