You are right. The above diff was only the most recent change. The
diff to Emacs 22 is:
-(defcustom gnus-confirm-mail-reply-to-news nil
+(defcustom gnus-confirm-mail-reply-to-news (and gnus-novice-user
+ (not gnus-expert-user))

The rationale for the current default is that if the user is a novice
and not a Gnus expert (see the doc string of `gnus-expert-user'), he
should be warned. This sounds plausible. But I'm not sure if using
`S W' in Gmane groups has been considered there. Probably the default
should be nil for (very) wide replies. What do people think?
[I don't have time to implement this during the next week.]
Bye, Reiner.
