Comment:

 If you do a query_posts('p=1'), you're supposed to get the whole post
 back. Doing this will cause $is_single to be set to true, since you're
 requesting a single post. And setup_postdata() will then force $more=1
 when is_single() returns true.

 The reason that your "new WP_Query()" functionality doesn't do that is
 because you created your own query instead of using the global one, and
 thus did not set the normal default query's $is_single but set a local one
 instead. And so setup_postdata(), which is looking at the default query
 only, does not see the is_single() and thus does not force $more=1.

 In other words, I believe this is expected behavior. Creating a new query
 and using the default query are actually two different things, not just
 different ways of doing the same thing.
