I can well imagine that the relevant code in BBDB stems from very
old days. Nonetheless, BBDB v2.35 (my limit of looking into the
history of BBDB, its file bbdb.el has as most recent copyright
statement "1994") claimed it wanted to make "gnus" happy with this
fragment of code. Software historians should feel free to dig
further in the past. -- I am glad this piece of code is gone.

The original version written by Masanobu UMEDA was called "GNUS" (all
uppercase), see (info "(gnus)History").

BTW, I guess gnus-Group-mode gnus-Subject-mode gnus-Article-mode were
names used in the original GNUS i.e. before Lars rewrote it. They are no
longer used.

I propose this patch:

Date:   Thu Sep 22 08:53:25 2011 +0800

I am sorry, you have confused me. Which patch are you ultimately
proposing?

As I mentioned before on this list, I do not know very much about
Gnus internals. So up to now I haven't done much to clean up /
update BBDB's Gnus interface. If anyone more knowledgeable than
myself could look into this, that would be great.

The current version is like this, is it o.k. for you? 

(defun bbdb/vm-set-auto-folder-alist ()
  "Create a `vm-auto-folder-alist' according to the records in the bbdb.
For each record that has a 'vm-folder' attribute, add an
\(email-regexp .  folder) element to the `vm-auto-folder-alist'.

The element gets added to the 'element-name' sublist of the
`vm-auto-folder-alist'.

The car of the element consists of all the email addresses for the
bbdb record concatenated with OR; the cdr is the value of the
vm-folder attribute.

If the first character of vm-folders value is a quote (') it will be
parsed as lisp expression and is evaluated to return a folder name."
