By golly it does!  I had remapped 'R' and 'F' to my own idiosyncratic
wrappers around `gnus-summary-reply-with-original' and
`gnus-summary-followup-with-original' and the way I did it had the
inadvertent side effect of blocking their capabilities to operate on a
group of marked articles.

Problem solved!

Thank you very much.
