You need to unsubscribe to the old group, and subscribe to the new one
within Gnus, but other than that I think it would work.  Hm, I think nnml
notices new groups automagically if they are part of the active file,
maybe you can use "echo linux.kernel.1 0 1 0 y >> active" to do everything
from the cmd line.  IMHO the active file should be eliminated, and a
".active" file in each nnml group should be used instead.
