FYI,

Emacs Gnus + news.gmane.org gives access to raw articles with single
command. Suppose cursor is at thread start "!"

! R. [  40: Junio C Hamano         ] Applying patches from gmane can be dangerous.
  R.     [  19: Nicolas Pitre          ]


Pressing "C-u g" will display the unmodified article as seen by mail
