I did a search and couldn't find anything in a thread about this but it seems FlyDubai will earn miles on United. I'm doing a search for Jan 2014 and FlyDubai comes up as a connection option out of DXB.
In the past, no miles showed up next to those flights indicating you wouldn't earn miles. The website is now showing miles so I wonder if FlyDubai will be eligible for earning miles. The "Earn Miles" page has not been updated and does not list FlyDubai but wondering if there is a pending announcement? Could this be part of the good news alluded to in that recent Twitter posting?
