Velocity displays the method call when the method call fail, ie :
1) return null (if $prop.name doesn't exist in $doc for example)
2) if the object is null (here $doc)
3) if it doesn't find the method in the object (here display with 3
args of 3 defined types)

You can try this (even if it's not the method i'd advise, cf previous mail) :

#set($obj = $bentrydoc.getObject("XWiki.ArticleClass"))
$bentrydoc.display($prop.name, "view", $obj)

The difference: display method called on bentrydoc (Article document)
and not the current document, which do not contains props I guess.
