Well, this got me to thinking that there ought to be a BBDB
hook for what I want. There is, and here's the easy solution.

(setq bbdb-mail-abbrev-expand-hook
      (lambda (arg1 arg2)
	(gnus-alias-determine-identity)))

A BBDB mail-alias is now properly expanded (when pressing
spacebar) and the correct gnus alias is used.

Thanks to everyone for their comments. Yes, an obscure need!
