I'm trying to reverse sort threads by date.  I have read the info
file and this isn't covered.  The mailing list had a brief mention of
this in 1998 and the following was added to gnus:
gnus-sum.el:9273:(defun gnus-summary-sort-by-date (&optional reverse)
gnus-sum.el:9277:  (gnus-summary-sort 'date reverse))

I tried inserting the following in my Group Params:
(gnus-thread-sort-functions (gnus-thread-sort-by-date REVERSE))

This does not sort reverse.  Can anyone see what I'm doing wrong?

Thanks.
