Thanks, Alan.  Now there is no error anymore.

I wonder if ignore-errors around font-lock-ensure in mm-display-inline-fontify
is still necessary to ensure no more bugs in other modes disrupt Gnus
by erroneous code in attachments?  Or maybe raising such errors will help
to find fontification bugs sooner?
