Is one of the Gnus maintainers an Emacs committer also? Perhaps the MH-E
model can be applied to Gnus.

Before each MH-E release, I run the import-emacs script (attached, but
specific to MH-E so read, understand, and modify accordingly before
using) which imports the current Emacs MH-E sources into the Emacs
branch in the MH-E CVS repository and then merges the changes into the
mainline (after I double-check them). I then release MH-E and then run
the install-emacs Makefile target which installs the MH-E files into
Emacs which are subsequently checked in.

Now, if I could create a single MH-E package that could be used by both
XEmacs and GNU Emacs, that would be ideal ;-).
