News 2.10.2 handles newsgroups with articles with numbers > 8192 (but
not newsgroups with > 8192 active articles) by storing both the lowest article
number and the number of articles in the active file.  The bitmap encodes the
status of articles minart..minart+nart-1, rather than the status of articles
0..8191.  (Thanx and a tip of the Hatlo to Rick Adams for implementing this.)
