I think most of the confusion in this thread is that you always write
`C-x C-s' and not `C-x C-c'.  Is that really what you type?  Or did you
rebind `C-x C-s' to do something different from `save-buffer'?

If I got you correctly you say that `C-x C-c' closes gnus, but lets the
emacs server alive, so you can reconnect with emacsclient and then gnus
is really closed.  If that's true, I think it's really strange, and I'd
suggest that you describe that on the gnus mailing list (ding@gnus.org).
IMHO `C-x C-c' shouldn't behave different when inside gnus buffers than
inside any other buffer.

That's save in every situation. ;-)
