As I was dinging around upgrading to 2.10.1, I seem to have found a bug
in readnews. I had a test message in topic general, which was #21 of 21.
After reading it and getting the header of the message in the next group,
I used the '-' command to get back to the general message. About the second
or third time I got this, my message number suddenly changed to #21 of 82.
There just happened to be 82 messages in the topic below general, so I
assume readnews just got confused. It also updated .newsrc for the bogus
number. Has anyone else see this? Anyone happen to have a bug? I'm still
getting vnews and things up, so I haven't had time to delve into it yet.
