Let's see...  Here's the call sequence I get when I `E' and then `q'
from the nnvirtual group:

Debugger entered: nil
  nnimap-request-expire-articles((392790 394237 394238) "spam" "quimby.gnus.org" nil)
  gnus-request-expire-articles((392790 394237 394238) "nnimap+quimby.gnus.org:spam")
  gnus-group-expire-articles-1("nnimap+quimby.gnus.org:spam")
  nnvirtual-request-expire-articles((392790 394237 394238 394330) "imap-test" "^$\\|\\(^nnimap\\+quimby\\.gnus\\.org:spam$\\)" nil)
  gnus-request-expire-articles((392790 394237 394238 394330) "nnvirtual:imap-test")
  gnus-summary-expire-articles()
  run-hooks(gnus-summary-prepare-exit-hook)
  apply(run-hooks gnus-summary-prepare-exit-hook)
  gnus-run-hooks(gnus-summary-prepare-exit-hook)
  gnus-summary-exit()
  funcall-interactively(gnus-summary-exit)

So this is done from gnus-summary-prepare-exit-hook.  What's the value
of that hook for you?
