Well, it looks fine.

If I know what you mean, d.k.sf is not correct as a newsgroup name,
and lacks a prefix such as `nntp:', right?

In this case, there is a bug in gnus-namazu/make-directory-table()
that creates a table of all possible cache directories from
`gnus-newsrc-hashtb'.  Gnus-namazu decides whether articles found by
Namazu are cached or not based on the table.

symbol-name() is used to get a group name from a symbol interned in
`gnus-newsrc-hashtb', as follows:

  (mapatoms
   (lambda (group)
     (unless (gnus-ephemeral-group-p (setq group (symbol-name group)))
     ...))
   gnus-newsrc-hashtb)

Could you tell me a right way to get all group names?
