Previously I could reliably reproduce the following problem, but only in two nnimap groups: If I either ran expiry or moved an article out of one of those groups, and a subsequent call to gnus-group-get-new-news showed new messages in the group, I couldn't get to the new messages until running gnus-agent-regenerate(-group). Kevin sent me some code to generate diagnostics but I was never able to get those diagnostics to run properly. Perhaps there's some XEmacs vs Emacs thing there, or perhaps, as I ultimately decided, there's nothing wrong with the code but rather a problem in the directory. So having decided that there must be something "wrong" with my agent directory hierarchy, I quit XEmacs and removed the hierarchy knowing I could easily refetch any messages I wanted. I restarted XEmacs, ran gnus and have not seen the problem since. I do see the problem being discussed in another thread about the %O mark not having the right value all the time (and I've moved it to the beginning of the line so variable width fields aren't the cause any more and changing the value of gnus-agent-mark-unread-after-downloaded), but that can be left to that other thread.
