For variables, in 99% of the cases, setq-default is the right thing to
use - in your case, for example, just

    (setq-default gnus-fetch-old-headers 300)

In very rare cases, custom uses a specialized setter function and using
just setq-default won't work.

BTW, `setq-default' is like `setq', but always sets the default
(i.e. the global) binding of a variable even when it is buffer local.
