Thanks a lot.  I tried to do that patch by inserting the
definition for  gnus-fetch-field and a revised definition for 
gnus-summary-enter-digest-group in my .gnus file, but
the change had no effect, and M-x gnus-fetch-field says
[no match].  So I apparently don't know how to apply 
(re)definitions.
