It does seem like the nnimap expiration function isn't being called at
all, somehow.

Would it be possible for you do open nnvirtual.el and `M-x edebug-defun'
on `nnvirtual-request-expire-articles' and then step through the
function when exiting from the nnvirtual group (with some articles
marked as expirable)?

What's interesting here is whether the

  (gnus-group-expire-articles-1 group)

form is being executed for the nnimap group.
