Yes. You need to backquote (``') the value of gnus-posting-styles in
order to have expressions following `,' evaluated.

     `(a list of ,(+ 2 3) elements) => (a list of 5 elements)

You quoted (`'') the list, so its elements following `,' were not
evaluated.

    '(a list of ,(+ 2 3) elements) => (a list of \, (+ 2 3) elements)
