I didn't get anything useful out of this :-(, my debug knowledge is
too old.

But I did a binary search and the patch that introduces the breakage
is this one:

+       * gnus-int.el (gnus-open-server): Fixed the server status such
+       that an agentized server, when opened offline, has a status of
+       offline.  Also fixes bug whereby the agent's backend was called
+       twice to open each server.
+
+       * gnus-start.el (gnus-get-unread-articles-in-group): Autoload
+       gnus-agent-possibly-alter-active rather than inline to resolve
+       compiler warnings.
+
+       * gnus.el (gnus-server-to-method): Added fallback of iterating
+       over gnus-newsrc-alist to resolve names of foreign servers.
+       Should fix recent agent bug.
+

Note that I'm not running agentized at all,

Andreas
