Not really.  The gnus-define-group-parameter macro expanded to include
this definition for ham-marks.  Perhaps you can eval it then step
through it with the debugger.

(defun gnus-parameter-ham-marks (name)
  ""
  (and name
       (or (gnus-group-find-parameter name (quote ham-marks) nil)
           (let ((alist gnus-parameter-ham-marks-alist) elem value) 
             (while (setq elem (pop alist))
               (when (and name (string-match (car elem) name))
                 (setq alist nil value (cdr elem))))
             (if (consp value)
                 (car value)
               value)))))
