That's exactly what I did.

I'm running No Gnus v0.7 from CVS of a few days ago, after you checked in
your changes. I've set gnus-verbose to 9.

When *new* mail comes in, I do get some more verbose messages:

gnus-registry-split-fancy-with-parent traced the reference
<47CD9E45.8080607@sun.com> from [<4787B193.4030800@sun.com>

<47CD9E45.8080607@sun.com> <47CD9E45.8080607@sun.com>] to group
sun.jaxp-tech-internal

But when I go to an essay in a *Summary* buffer that I know was misplaced,
expand the headers, switch to that buffer, and M-: 
 (gnus-registry-split-fancy-with-parent), I get "nil" in the minibuffer
and "nil" in the *Messages* buffer.

When I run "B t", I get 

(: gnus-registry-split-fancy-with-parent)
"misc"
(: nwalsh-incoming-group)
"archive.2008-03"

and "This message would go to archive.2008-03, misc" in *Messages*

I'm very confused. This looks and feels like user error, but I don't
see where I've erred.

                                        Be seeing you,
