No, that's only for explaining my idea. Maybe, it should be
performed to gnus-util.el before you change. If you allow, I
need to do work.

About the case where `eval' is used in the Lisp source, there
was a similar description in very old Info documents.
`dont-compile' is an another expression of `eval' and `quote':
(macroexpand '(dont-compile FORM))
=> (eval (quote FORM))
It is used in order to express the purpose more clearly.
Besides making the operation slow a bit, there is no problem.
