"patch" may be exaggerating it a little bit. What I used is
(remove-hook 'gnus-summary-prepare-exit-hook 'gnus-summary-expire-articles)
in my .gnus and
;; Remove entries for this group.
(nnmail-purge-split-history (gnus-group-real-name group))
;; Make all changes in this group permanent.
(unless quit-config
(gnus-run-hooks 'gnus-exit-group-hook)
(gnus-summary-update-info))
+ (gnus-summary-expire-articles)
(gnus-close-group group)
;; Make sure where we were, and go to next newsgroup.
(when (buffer-live-p (get-buffer gnus-group-buffer))
(set-buffer gnus-group-buffer))
(unless quit-config
in gnus-summary-exit (gnus-sum.el).
Best,
-Nikolaus
