There is so little agent code exposed via the summary that I can't see
how the agent is the direct cause of this problem.  Are you using
gnus-agent-fetch-selected-article to download these articles?  If so,
the summary code redrew the lines to change the - to + in column 1 and
change the line's color.  It's possible that the summary didn't
position the fields correctly in the updated line.

You might this test function.
(defun test1 (article)
  (gnus-summary-goto-subject article nil t)
  (gnus-summary-update-article-line
        article
	 (gnus-summary-article-header article)))

The next time you notice that downloaded articles are misaligned, use
this function to force specified articles to update without calling
the agent.  In particular, try it on the article following the
incorrectly displayed articles.
