Thanks for pointing out the problem -- I was able to recreate it. Here
is a better fix to the problem:
(defun gnus-group-get-new-nnml ()
"Get new mail only."
(interactive)
(let ((gnus-group-new-mail-list nil)
(method '(nnml ""))
(nnml-prepare-save-mail-hook
(cons '(lambda ()
(setq gnus-group-new-mail-list
(union gnus-group-new-mail-list
(mapcar 'car group-art))))
nnml-prepare-save-mail-hook)))
(when (gnus-check-server method)
(gnus-request-scan nil method))
(let ((gnus-group-marked (mapcar '(lambda (group)
(concat "nnml:" group))
gnus-group-new-mail-list)))
(gnus-group-get-new-news-this-group))
(when gnus-goto-next-group-when-activating
(gnus-group-next-unread-group 1 t))
(gnus-summary-position-point)
(gnus-group-list-groups)
gnus-group-new-mail-list))
