I think you're missing my point.  The manual never mentions that you
have to (require 'gnus-dup) in order to get this functionality.  There
are no autoloads that would cause it to be brought in automatically.
You can't even customize the other two settings until you've loaded it.
A naïve user who isn't used to grepping the gnus sources to figure
things out would be stuck.
