OK, lets say it is irreproducible.
Let's just concentrate on why the user cannot do
(setq ffap-foo-at-bar-prefix "mailto") in .emacs or .gnus.el, and have
its value retained in a gnus *Article* buffer.

Examine its value in an *Article* buffer, and you'll see it has been overridden.

I saw some code in ffap.el that looked like it should use defvar
instead of setq.

In `ffap-bindings' there's...

     (add-hook 'gnus-summary-mode-hook 'ffap-gnus-hook)
     (add-hook 'gnus-article-mode-hook 'ffap-gnus-hook)

... and in `ffap-gnus-hook':

  (set (make-local-variable 'ffap-foo-at-bar-prefix) "news") ; message-id's

Does it help to remove the hook...

     (remove-hook 'gnus-summary-mode-hook 'ffap-gnus-hook)
     (remove-hook 'gnus-article-mode-hook 'ffap-gnus-hook)

... _after_ calling `ffap-bindings'?

Bye, Reiner.
