The problem seems to be that you have some nnir stuff in your
summary-line-format variable.  When gnus-sum is loaded, it requires
nnir, which then requires gnus-sum, which then...

So that's not going to work.

One possible fix here is to say (require 'gnus-sum) before you put the
nnir stuff into the line-format variable.
