It should. And it does it in my tests:
$ cat News/marks/localhost/de/comp/advocacy/.marks
((tick 310) (read (1 . 310)))
`M-x gnus-group-clear-data-on-native-groups RET' in fact calls
`nntp-request-set-mark'...
$ cat News/marks/localhost/de/comp/advocacy/.marks
nil
Note that you must *not* set `nntp-marks-is-evil' to t when clearing
the data.
Bye, Reiner.
