I have the following altered function definition in my personal
configuration which fixes (well, papers over) the problem.

#+begin_src emacs-lisp
  (defun mm-display-org-inline (handle)
    "Show an Org mode text from HANDLE inline."
    (condition-case nil
        (mm-display-inline-fontify handle 'org-mode)
      (error (mm-insert-part handle))))
#+end_src

It is not clear to me why Org-mode fontification would only throw errors
when called from `mm-display-inline-fontify'.
