It really doesn't matter, at this point. `gnus-group-list' is the source
of authority on sorting (if the user isn't using topic mode), and
`gnus-newsrc-hashtb' is more and more just used for persisting to disk.
We want to save the sort order on shutdown, but during a Gnus session it
doesn't matter.
