Note that bbdb-mua-display-sender is more intended for interactive
use, not for use as a hook function. So
(bbdb-mua-auto-update-init 'gnus 'message)
should really be the way to go for noninteractive things. This
requires to set bbdb-mua-auto-update-p.

...Strange. If you set bbdb-mua-auto-update-p, this is what
bbdb-mua-auto-update uses. In this case, it should never see your
value of bbdb/gnus-update-records-p.

...This behavior was already implemented in BBDB v2. Is this a problem?

PS: You are a Gnus user. For historical reasons bbdb-gnus.el still
contains Gnus-specific variables such as bbdb/gnus-summary-show-bbdb-names
where I am not sure they should be kept the way they are because they are
not particularly related to Gnus. If they implement a useful feature, such
a variable should be independent of a particular MUA.
