Looks good; applied with one minor tweak:

> +(defun gnus-article-sort-by-newsgroups (h1 h2)
> +  "Sort articles by newsgroups."
> +  (gnus-string<
> +   (let ((extract (funcall
> +		   gnus-extract-address-components
> +		   (or (cdr (assq 'Newsgroups (mail-header-extra h1))) ""))))
> +     (or (car extract) (cadr extract)))
> +   (let ((extract (funcall
> +		   gnus-extract-address-components
> +		   (or (cdr (assq 'Newsgroups (mail-header-extra h2))) ""))))
> +     (or (car extract) (cadr extract)))))

I rewrote that to:

(defun gnus-article-sort-by-newsgroups (h1 h2)
  "Sort articles by newsgroups."
  (let ((ex
         (lambda (h)
           (let ((extract
                  (funcall gnus-extract-address-components
		           (or (cdr (assq 'Newsgroups (mail-header-extra h)))
                               ""))))
             (or (car extract) (cadr extract))))))
    (gnus-string< (funcall ex h1) (funcall ex h2))))

To avoid the duplication -- let me know if I messed up that bit.
