It's in gnus.ding at news.gnus.org (or google groups). I think this is
the start of said discussion:

    From: Hanak David <dhanak@inf.bme.hu>
    Newsgroups: gnus.ding
    Subject: emacs.gnus

    I find it annoying that Gnus cannot determine the exact article
    count for nnml groups. Since I often move messages from one group
    to another, or expire articles, the active range is full of holes.
    Therefore, when I ask Gnus for, say, 50 articles, it might happen
    that I only get 5. And the estimate for the number of artciles can
    also become very wild.
    
    I've hacked this for myself quite a while ago, but very recently
    I've joined the Gnus newsgroups, and decided to send a patch that
    would solve the problem for others, too. The patches are up to
    date, they are based on the CVS version. Please feel free to
    modify them. [...]
