Sorry, I misread your message -- I thought you had the variable switched
on...

This is the code:

                (when (and expirable
                           gnus-mark-copied-or-moved-articles-as-expirable
                           (not (memq 'expire to-marks)))
                  ;; Mark this article as expirable.
                  (push 'expire to-marks)
                  (when (equal to-group gnus-newsgroup-name)
                    (push to-article gnus-newsgroup-expirable))
                  ;; Copy the expirable mark to other group.
                  (gnus-add-marked-articles
                   to-group 'expire (list to-article) info))

So it looks like it really shouldn't be copying over the expirable
marks...  Hm...
