Pick a group that's problematic. Grep your newsrc.eld for the group name before and after you enter it. You're looking for discrepancy between the data in the newsrc and what's on the server. In the worst case, you can just delete the group from the newsrc (or just C-k in Gnus) and then re-add it, but you'll lose state data (how much depends on the group, e.g. nnimap backends are not too affected while nntp backends are). Also the problem may be elsewhere. I'm not an expert in article ranges, but will at least try to help you get enough information so this bug can be found and fixed, if possible. You can follow up directly to the ding mailing list if you want knowledgeable people to look at your report directly. I think fewer follow the gnu.emacs.gnus newsgroup.
