We would like an arbitrary header access function where the
header is provided as an argument, as in

(defun gnus-article-header-value (hdr)
  "Get the value of HDR for the current article."
  (with-current-buffer gnus-original-article-buffer
    (gnus-fetch-field hdr) ))

 only one that works from anywhere, where the article is
fetched from what article is selected (or, lacking that, where
the point is) in the summary buffer.
