You seem to be hitting this code:

(defun gnus-sort-threads (threads)
  "Sort THREADS."
  (if (not gnus-thread-sort-functions)
      threads
    (gnus-message 8 "Sorting threads...")
    (prog1
	(condition-case nil
	    (let ((max-lisp-eval-depth (max max-lisp-eval-depth 5000)))
	      (gnus-sort-threads-recursive
	       threads (gnus-make-sort-function gnus-thread-sort-functions)))
	  ;; Even after binding max-lisp-eval-depth, the recursive
	  ;; sorter might fail for very long threads.  In that case,
	  ;; try using a (less well-tested) non-recursive sorter.
	  (error (gnus-message 9 "Sorting threads with loop...")
		 (gnus-sort-threads-loop
		  threads (gnus-make-sort-function
			   gnus-thread-sort-functions))))
      (gnus-message 8 "Sorting threads...done"))))

I doubt that gnus-sort-threads-loop has ever actually been tested much.

Anyway, you seem to have some circular structures going on in some of
the threads, and Gnus seems to be unable to cut the loop.
