gnus-desktop-notify-check uses the macro gnus-group-unread, which used
intern-soft prior to Eric's porting Gnus to real hash tables.

Instead of disabling gnus-desktop-notify, try recompiling the package,
or uninstalling and reinstalling it.  This should allow
gnus-desktop-notify to use the new code for real hash tables.
