I've implemented this feature in the right way (maybe), in the
Gnus CVS trunk.  Now this is controlled by:

,----
| `gnus-add-timestamp-to-message'
|      This variable controls whether to add timestamps to messages that
|      are issued controlled by `gnus-verbose' and
|      `gnus-verbose-backends'.  The default value is `nil' which means
|      never to add timestamp.  If it is `log', add timestamps to only
|      the messages that go into the `*Messages*' buffer (in XEmacs, it
|      is the ` *Message-Log*' buffer).  If it is neither `nil' nor
|      `log', add timestamps not only to log messages but also to the
|      ones displayed in the echo area.
`----

I use the following so that it may be t when running Gnus as a
cron job:

(setq gnus-add-timestamp-to-message (if noninteractive t 'log))
