OK, let's see if I understand it:
If Gmane does it, altho one server is down, by
crossposting to a group associated with another
server, that is up, all Gmane users still get it in
the group associated with the server, that is down!
However if the client does it, it only works for
people that also subscribe to the group associated
with the server, that is up!
But what about all other people? They don't get it.
So perhaps this method isn't that good as the post
only reach a subset of the group's subscribers.
Perhaps better to wait for the down server
to resurface?
PS. Yes, I use Gnus.
