gnus-group-read-ephemeral-search-group -- Something Changed?

[T.V Raman]

I use gnus-group-read-ephemeral-search-group to search GMail via imap,
see details in this blog article:
https://emacspeak.blogspot.com/2020/09/searching-gmail-from-gnus.html

About  8 weeks or so, that function
gnus-group-read-ephemeral-search-group was declared obsolete but its
replacement was supposed to be backward compatible and everything
worked until about 2 days ago --- or from memory I updated/rebuilt
emacs yesterday and it's broken today.

Broken: How,

Now, when I invoke the afore-mentioned function
I get an additional prompt after supplying the query  and calling it
with the imap-search spec it expects. A quick look in git logs didn't
show anything suspicious, other than the file was changed with
comments to the effect that that function is obsolete.
