This is a bit hard to look at, but it seems like the problem is in
notmuch's thread-specific search handling. What is supposed to happen
is that notmuch first uses those message-ids to find the messages, then
finds the thread:<thread-id> statements for all of the search results, then does
*another* search using the thread ids from the first search. So
obviously something's going wrong with that. The relevant method is
currently line 1589 in gnus-search.el, I'm also pasting it below. Would
you mind edebugging it and stepping through to see which part exactly is
wrong?

Thanks.

  "Handle notmuch's thread-search routine."
  ;; Notmuch allows for searching threads, but only using its own
  ;; thread ids.  That means a thread search is a \"double-bounce\":
  ;; once to find the relevant thread ids, and again to find the
  ;; actual messages.  This method performs the first \"bounce\".
