I have to admit that I never compared dates. I even don't show them in
summary buffers...

Phew, dunno how this could happen. Maybe somehow by setting
gnus-summary-thread-gathering-function to gnus-gather-threads-by-subject
and posters with wrong dates? But that's only a blind guess...

I use
(setq gnus-fetch-old-headers 'some)
(setq gnus-build-sparse-threads nil) ;; the default
and never tried other values of the latter.
