It is just that the "R" mark is not visible in the "Summary" buffer. The mail
gets marked as in when I leave the "Summary" buffer and return to *Group*
buffer I can see the unread count of mails decreased.

I also noticed that it's reproduces in Gnus git HEAD code as well, but not
always, whereas it's always reproducible with Gnus code (in Emacs bzr).

I'm using Emacs on GNU/Linux, compiled with GCC 4.5.1, with following
value of `system-configuration-options':

'--prefix=/usr' '--localstatedir=/var/lib/emacs' '--libexecdir=/usr/lib/emacs' 
'--with-xpm' '--with-jpeg' '--with-tiff' '--with-gif' '--with-xim' '--with-png' 
'--with-x-toolkit=gtk' '--with-m17n-flt' '--with-rsvg' '--with-xft' 
'--with-libotf' '--with-gpm' '--with-dbus' '--with-sound' '--with-makeinfo' 
'CFLAGS=-march=x86-64 -mtune=native -O2 -pipe -g -fno-optimize-sibling-calls' 
'LDFLAGS=-Wl,--hash-style=gnu -Wl,--as-needed'

And there is nothing I can found in my load path which alters Gnus behavior,
other than BBDB, as shown below:

#v+
;; bbdb
(eval-after-load "bbdb"
  '(progn
         (bbdb-initialize 'gnus 'sc 'message 'sendmail)
         (setq bbdb-dwim-net-address-allow-redundancy t)
         (add-hook 'gnus-startup-hook 'bbdb-insinuate-gnus)
         (eval-after-load "sendmail"
           (add-hook 'mail-setup-hook 'bbdb-insinuate-sendmail))))
(require 'bbdb-autoloads)
#v-
