Thank you for your tests.

After a little more debugging here, it seems that what happens is that
the following configuration is important for this to break:

(setq gnus-refer-article-method
      '(current
        (nnir "nnimap:inria")
        (nnir "nnimap:local")))

The `gnus-request-update-mark' function works well for nnimap (as there
is no corresponding function, so the initial mark is returned), but it
seems to be problematic with nnir. I cannot edebug it further because
`nnir-request-update-mark' is a deffoo, and I don’t know how to debug
those.
