So you have `gnus-asynchronous' set globally to nil, but have
`(gnus-asynchronous t)' in the group params, and that doesn't work?

Let's see...  Yes, it looks like that variable is being checked while
in the article buffer, which means that the group param setting
doesn't work.  I thought we decided a while ago to copy all local
variables from the summary buffer to the article buffer?  Did I forget 
to write that code?

No, there's a call to `gnus-summary-set-local-parameters' from the
article buffer setup code, so that should actually work, I think.
Hm.
