Hi Ulf and Tassilo,
I have fixed this issue by removing the docstring from the definition
of the defvaralias, to make the definition compatible for both Emacsen.

This is of course always a problem. However, links created with older
versions of Org-mode will work just fine with Tassilos modifications
of org-gnus.el. So as long as you use the latest version of Org,
everything is fine. I can see that someone might be annoyed getting
a ling that does not work, but the same would be true for any other
new link types added over time. Linking to message ID's is so much
better than using message numbers that I have trouble to remember
why we ever implemented in this stupid way.... :-)
