[sorry for the misfire - I typed ^C^S with the control key down... it's
early...]

was that my *Group* buffer was entirely upside down!  (what
should be first was last, and vice versa).

And I had to use ^U ^C ^S to sort it normal, not ^C ^S!

Here's my preferred sorting:

(setq
 gnus-group-sort-function '(gnus-group-sort-by-alphabet
			    gnus-group-sort-by-level)
)

Any clues?
