Have you tried posting styles?  They work for me.

Oh, do you mean you want supersedes to be saved somewhere different
from normal posts?  This might work, then:
(add-to-list 'gnus-posting-styles
             '((header "supersedes" ".")
               ("Fcc" "whatever")))

They do, for me.  How do you set your posting style?  How do you
create the superseding message buffer?

You can use this instead:
(add-to-list 'gnus-posting-styles
             '((message-news-p) ("Fcc" "~/News/Articles")))

Likewise:
(add-to-list 'gnus-posting-styles
             '(t
               ("Gcc" (concat "sent-" (if (message-news-p) "news-" "mail-")
                              (format-time-string "%Y-%B" (current-time))))))

I suppose that could be a bug anyway, but the above should work.

In what way does it not work?  Do the Gcc and Fcc fields not get added
to the header?  Or are they added, but not acted upon?

This sounds like something is going wrong with Gcc.  Try this instead
of the last one (you'll need to restart Emacs or manually remove the
previous version from gnus-posting-styles):
(add-to-list 'gnus-posting-styles
             '(t
               ("Gcc" (concat "nnfolder:sent-"
                              (if (message-news-p) "news-" "mail-")
                              (format-time-string "%Y-%B" (current-time))))))
Substituting whatever you use in place of "nnfolder:".
