I have set the gnus-header-newsgroups-face by M-x customize, But emacs
doesn't display correctly. So I changed the source as the following,
then it works. Is this a mistake?

I don't think so.  Doesn't the original regexp intend to
distinguish a cross-post and a single-post?

    The origional works with cross-post, but with single-post it
    doesn't. Now both ok.

You can make a new face for single-post and customize the
gnus-header-face-alist variable.  I am just doing so. :)

    Yes, now I use my own gnus-header-face-alist. But before this, I
    don't know why I can't change the display by M-x customize. So I
    searched it in the sources, and changed it, and found that it works.

Ah, you're probably right.  Maybe we should just improve the docstring
for `gnus-header-newsgroups-face' instead?

    Face used for displaying newsgroups headers.

Which is currently a bit confusing if it's only intended to apply to
crossposts.

OK, I think this makes most sense.  So I added an explanation to the
docstring instead.

Thanks.  It may be better that the default value is a showy
sample. :)

I think the intention was that Newsgroups: headers only need to be
highlighted when they contain groups other than the current group,
i.e. for crossposts.  Various docstrings didn't reflect this, so your
patch is probably just as good as a patch that fixes the docstrings.
