Perfect!  I now get the test thread like this:

I have

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(setq gnus-thread-sort-functions
      '(gnus-thread-sort-by-number gnus-thread-sort-by-most-recent-date))

(setq gnus-subthread-sort-functions
      '(gnus-thread-sort-by-number gnus-thread-sort-by-date))

(setq gnus-sort-gathered-threads-function 'gnus-thread-sort-by-date)
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

in my Gnus init file.

Thanks very much.

Best regards,
Raghu.
