Further info: I fetched this message using netcat and NNTP commands
directly from news.gmane.org and found gmane.spam.detected in both
headers:
#v+
Newsgroups: gmane.comp.gnome.apps.gnucash.user,gmane.spam.detected
Xref: news.gmane.org gmane.comp.gnome.apps.gnucash.user:33154 gmane.spam.detected:4515821
#v-

It's not there (on my server). It hadn't occurred to me that an
upstream server would use groups in its headers that it doesn't
include in its group list.

Thanks, now I understand. I'd expected leafnode to construct local
Xref headers (and to create group directories locally) from the
fetched messages' Xref or Newsgroup headers. I guess leafnode does
something like that *but* deletes groups that aren't in the local
groupinfo?
