I use the same configuration, but this still doesn't work in the
Summary buffer, because my Summary buffer is in the thread mode
where the subject line is displayed only for the top article of the
thread.  So for other articles in the thread in the Summary buffer
gnus-get-emacs-bug-number doesn't find a bug reference from the
current line.
