I didn't mean to imply otherwise, sorry. It was almost a note to

What is happenning is that gnus-BTS gets byte-compiled against the stock
gnus and used with the packaged gnus. For one thing, I'm not sure that
the packaged gnus should be used by emacs-snapshot since it would have a
bleeding-edge gnus.
It's very likely that this problem goes away if you uninstall the gnus
package. If so, I'll fix the problem by skipping byte-compilation for
gnus-BTS.el.
