I am relatively new to gnus. But I am using tm package made by
Mr. Morioka with gnus in mule-2.3-emacs-19.34b and it shows
Japanese headers correctly. It is a mime-tool.

Now he is developing semi (successor of tm) for emacs-20.x and
it is already available at the sites below:
(I got these from a friend.)

    ftp://ftp.jaist.ac.jp/pub/GNU/elisp/semi/   (Japan)
    ftp://ftp.nis.co.jp/pub/gnu/emacs-lisp/tm/alpha/    (Japan)
    ftp://ftp.nisiq.net/pub/gnu/emacs-lisp/tm/alpha/    (US)
    ftp://ftp.miranova.com/pub/mime/jaist.ac.jp/alpha/  (US)
    ftp://ftp.unicamp.br/pub/mail/mime/tm/alpha/        (Brazil)

I heard he is also developing a new gnus based on the current alpha version.
I do not know well about it.
You will be given current info if you join the mailing list.
Just get the semi and it will tell you all.
