Okay, I've done this but it's too early to tell if the workaround
works.
But what about the cause of the problem? It seems that for some reason
Gnus ignores the information it gets back from the server when a group
is entered.
E.g.
GROUP comp.os.linux.misc
211 994 247830 248828 comp.os.linux.misc selected
Gnus still starts its search based on old information in the
.newsrc-localhost.eld file. Instead of only calling XOVER or HEAD of
articles in the range 247830-248828 it calls XOVER/HEAD for all
articles listed in the .eld file in this case starting with article
247211.
