It seems safest to always remove old exist/unexist/whatever marks that
can be recreated from the server if `gnus-newsrc-file-version' does not
equal the current Gnus version. With a message saying why, and maybe a
way to disable it selectively and trigger it explicitly. Worst case,
some users have to download things twice... but the logic is much
simpler regarding versions.
