The the beginning of the function `gnus-summary-select-article', there 
is the following comment and code (file gnus-sum.el, lines 3747-3749):

  ;; Make sure we are in the summary buffer to work around bbdb bug.
  (unless (eq major-mode 'gnus-summary-mode)
    (set-buffer gnus-summary-buffer))

What bug?

I don't recall, but there was something about bbdb counting on
gnus-summary-select-article only being executed from the summary
buffer.
