Ah. Well.

They are displayed on adjacent lines in the summary buffer.
Okay, so the settings of two variables are important:
gnus-summary-thread-gathering-function and
gnus-summary-make-false-root.
Further improvement can be had by fiddling with the fuzzy and subject
simplification thingies.
Somebody in a German newsgroup continues to claim that setting
gnus-thread-ignore-subject to nil is a useful thing to do in the above
context. But of course, it isn't. Does something different
entirely. Now I'll go back and try to explain again.
Thanks,
