Hi,

If you open an article in Gnus, then move the point away from the
summary line of that article in the Summary buffer, then go back to the
Article buffer and M-x org-store-link, it will link to the article
you're pointing at in the Summary, not the article in the Article
buffer.

The issue is at line 145 in
https://code.orgmode.org/bzg/org-mode/raw/master/lisp/org-gnus.el
which does

            (header (with-current-buffer gnus-summary-buffer
                      (gnus-summary-article-header)))

(I'm running 8.2.10 normally, but I've tried the most recent org-gnus.el
and it's the same, and the code makes it clear why.)

In my own code I use the following workaround:

      (if (eq major-mode 'gnus-article-mode)
          (save-window-excursion (gnus-article-show-summary)
                                 (org-store-link nil))
        (org-store-link nil))

although someone with knowledge of gnus internals might be able to avoid
the call to (gnus-configure-windows 'article) that changes the window
configuration. (Or maybe org-mode should simply use the above workaround
since that assumes less about gnus internals, which might change more
than its public API.)
