My guess is that they're yenc-encoded files in a binary newsgroup, which
gnus-uu doesn't support (at least in my version of emacs).
If so, search gnu.emacs.sources for some stuff I posted a couple of years ago
to decode usenet yenc messages. The version I posted is synchronous and
decodes in elisp, so it's slow, but adequate for the occasional binary. (I
also have a faster asynchronous version that uses an external Java program to
decode, but it's ugly and not suitable for posting).
