This took 6 seconds while the rich man's version took 18 seconds
(in the condition where: (length gnus-newsrc-alist) => 1552).

It seems useful for a few people including me. ;-)  Though it
might be sufficient to such people to do that by a hook:

(add-hook
 'gnus-save-quick-newsrc-hook
 (lambda nil
   (goto-char (point-min))
   (while (search-forward "\n(setq " nil t)
     (replace-match "\n\n(setq "))))

It took 0.012 seconds.
