(setq gnus-directory "~/srcf/gnus")
(setq message-directory "~/srcf/gnus/Mail")

they're initialized.

You fool! You fell victim to one of the classic blunders! The most
famous is, "Never get involved in a land war in Asia", but only
slightly less well-known is this: "Never go in against a Sicilian when
death is on the line"!
