    (setq gnus-button-url 'Other)
    (setq browse-url-browser-function 'gnus-note-url)

gnus-button-url is only used now in gnus-cus.el.

Do you set your variables before or after gnus-cus is loaded?  Perhaps
order of loading is important here.

For referenece, here is what I do in my .sgnus:

...
(require 'gnus-cus)
...
(setq browse-url-browser-function (function gnus-lynx-start-url))
(require 'browse-url)
...

This works.  Lynx is brought up whenever I click on a URL except
if I'm in MIME view mode.  (I assume that's a tm-view bug).
