There might have been some gnus-mock-specific reason why I was doing all that, but at this point I can't remember. I'll be curious to know if Deepak can solve his issue by setting `gnus-home-directory' in his (non-Gnus) init file. I suppose you'd need to set it before loading any package that might require Gnus, as well.
