The reason is that `gnus-display-mime' says

...
      (let* ((handles (or ihandles
			  (mm-dissect-buffer nil gnus-article-loose-mime)
			  (and gnus-article-emulate-mime
			       (mm-uu-dissect))))
...

which means that pre-MIME parsing (mm-uu-dissect) is only done when
MIME isn't found.  Apparently, a MIME message with only a text/plain
part makes mm-dissect-buffer return nil, so it is treated as a
pre-MIME message.  So messages with CT parameters, such as
format=flowed, or generally any non-trivial MIME message, is treated
as a text part and mm-uu-dissect is never run.

Perhaps mm-uu-dissect should be run on all text/plain parts?  Or all
text/.* parts?  Opinions?
