Ah, of course.  Silly me.

How about this one?

(defun hp-search-backend-1 ()
  (interactive)
  (setq nnir-glimpse-home ...)
  (setq nnir-mail-backend ...)
  (call-interactively 'gnus-group-make-nnir-group))

Note: You can't have more than one query in progress at any one time
using the above method.  Like I said, just a kluge.
