What I needed to do was to download the dependencies as outlined here:
http://emacs.stackexchange.com/a/27251
Ie. what I did, was:
- Download emacs-25.0.93-i686-w64-mingw32.zip from http://alpha.gnu.org/gnu/emacs/pretest/windows/
- Unzip the file into the same directory I had unpacked emacs 25 (in my
case, unpacked to C:\ProgramFiles\emacs-25.1-2-x86_64-w64-mingw32 )
- I started a new emacs 25 and did 'M-x gnus RET'
- This time gnus started, I was confronted with a prompt that asked me
if I would accept connection to a server could not be verified
- I tried to accept this certificate Always, but I don't know if it
"took"
At least now I'm up and running.
