I have this in my .emacs:

bin3zcyVoJ_w9.bin
Description: application/emacs-lisp

And I have this in ~/emacs/gnus/.gnus.el:

binUyuEnwNbkl.bin
Description: application/emacs-lisp

I guess the `gnus-home-directory' is OK in .gnus.el

I'm not sure if it is easy to move those directories. I recall having
problems to do so. But that's quite a while ago.
