I just tried this:

    (require' nnimap)
    (setq nnimap-split-fancy "test")

Then: 'q' in *Group* (indeed `gnus-group-exit').

This means the *Group* buffer is killed,
(gnus-alive-p) is nil, and the variable is still
"test".

I have (gnus-version 1)

    Gnus v5.13

and (emacs-version 1)

    GNU Emacs 24.4.1 (x86_64-pc-linux-gnu) of
    2014-10-25 on trouble, modified by Debian

Try to reproduce this with a minimal amount of
initialization. In particular, check out the hooks
that execute when Gnus terminates (e.g.,
`gnus-exit-gnus-hook', but there might be more - use
the source, Luke!).

If you can't find it try your current setup on the
Emacs version that I have. That should tell you if it
is a bug induced by you or someone else (in what case
you should report it).
