I think this was fixed by this patch:

commit 3fb7881a0e320f380203c0f2dd16dfc7189af1e9
Author: Eric Abrahamsen <eric <at> ericabrahamsen.net>
Date:   Sun Sep 6 12:47:43 2015 +0000

    nnimap.el:  Handle nil arg to nnimap-request-group
    
    * lisp/gnus/nnimap.el (nnimap-request-group):  Handle nil "info" arg.
    This arg isn't always passed in, check it's not nil before making it
    into a list.  The active arg will also be nil if the group is new,
    check for that.

So this should work now, and I'm closing this bug report.  If you're
still seeing this bug, please reopen.
