I'm sure there's a simple hook for this, but my brain hurts today, so
I'm calling for ideas.

Consider the following sequence of actions:

	1. Enter GNUS
	2. Kill some groups via "C-k" or (gnus-Group-kill-group)
	3. Save all buffers via "C-u C-x s" or (save-some-buffers 't)
	4. Quit GNUS via "q" or (gnus-Group-exit)

Since saving all buffers saved the buffer holding .newsrc, quitting
GNUS does not update the .newsrc.el file.  No problem, right?  The
next time GNUS starts up, it should realize that .newsrc.el is
out-of-date, and just use .newsrc instead.

Well, that seems to work for determining which articles I have read,
but it fails to remember the groups that I killed in step 2.  They
appear in the groups list as though I had never killed them.

My instinct is to use gnus-Exit-gnus-hook, probably using
file-newer-than-file-p to decide if .newsrc.el needs to be updated.
However, I'd *really* like a solution that does not depend upon me
exiting GNUS via gnus-Group-exit.  That is, if I spontaneously issue
"C-x C-c", or (save-buffers-kill-emacs), I'd like GNUS to have its
head on straight the next time it starts up.

Any suggestions?
