Please remove the require and report the backtrace you get, I think
the proper autoloads etc should be installed so that C-x m with Gnus
works by default, including stuff like posting styles.

That is probably also a bug that should be solved, what is the
backtrace you get if you don't put the workaround in your .emacs?
