I'm still not sure about disabling outlines in Gnus because when the
user configured to hide outlines e.g. with long lines, then it makes sense
to hide long lines in Gnus too.

But the problem with the reported attached file is different:
in that file outlines are never displayed even outside of Gnus.
This is because the diff format is slightly different, but
`outline--show-headings-up-to-level' first hides all outlines,
but then fails to unhide them back.

Matthias, could you please check what is wrong with the reported diff file
and why vasibility of its outlines can't be changed?
