After many hours of wrestling with this, it turns out to have nothing to
do with Gnus. It's a quirk about Gmail's mail arrangement, and the way
that mbsync works. It seems I had a similar problem a few years ago
when I used mbsync for mu4e for a little while (though I have no memory
of this), and so my Google searches ultimately led me back to my own old
question (and, fortunately, solution):
http://sourceforge.net/p/isync/mailman/message/31638141/ :---
The trick is to make a separate mbsync channel and sync the
Trash/Bin first.
Though, ultimately (actually in the course of trying to find a solution)
I ended up switching to using fancy-expire (keyed to email addresses)
instead, as the other method doesn't work for virtual groups.
