Yes.  This is (at least partly) the same old problem of Gnus
overestimating the number of articles when there are holes in the
article range.  Such holes are more likely now that nnmaildir stores
article numbers persistently.  There seems to be more to it, but I'm
not sure what yet.  AFAICT, nnmaildir is reporting correct data to
Gnus, but in some cases, Gnus still overestimates even when there are
no holes.
