Hmmm. I hadn't seen this post before replying to the original because my
newsreader put this post in a later thread because:

(a) The subject header was changed
(b) The reference header is for a post that's not present in Usenet

That raises another question.  I'm seeing a number of broken threads
because people reply to posts that are not present in Usenet.  It's not
just my main news-server because my newreader can gather posts from
several Usenet servers and those posts are nowhere on Usenet.

Case in point:  The post by Terry Reedy quoted above, reference
<n3t7jo$ae3$1@ger.gmane.org>. I presume that it's on the list server
even though it's not on Usenet.  Anybody know what's going on?
