Well, *finally* after many months, I solved this problem.  It turns
out that when `nnimap-nov-is-evil' is not set, commands such as
`gnus-group-get-new-news' look at the cached overview file to
calculate the article count in `nnimap' groups, instead of causing a
query the IMAP server directly.  I'm not sure if this is a bug or a
feature, but in either case, setting `nnimap-nov-is-evil' to `t'
causes my article counts to get properly updated in my `nnimap' group,
just the way I like.

Thanks to all of you who have taken the time to help me with this.
