Gnus comes with a configure script.  Say "./configure --help" for
information, then call the script for real (with the right switches).
Then "make", then "make install".  I think there's also an INSTALL
file with installation instructions.

Please install the new Gnus version in some directory _other_ than the
one the original Gnus lives in.  Then, use

(add-to-list 'load-path "/path/to/dir/with/gnus/el/files/")

to tell Emacs about it.
