If the Gnus maintainers are actively maintaining and developing the rfc*.el files, it's not worthwhile to move those files from gnus/ into net/, if that would make it harder for them to do thir job (due to the repository synch issues etc.) But if these files are more or less "stable", then I don't see why not. In the meantime, there's no reason to avoid `require'ing a package just because that package happens to live in the gnus/ directory.
