RRRaaaiiiddd .... (anyone seen the dead bug yet?)

can anyone explain what causes duplication entries for news-groups in file
.newsrc ??  how to avoid it ?   and why sorting the file in alfabetical
order seems to contribute to the duplication?  what are the side-effects
and how best fix it?  (I assume that this is of general interest and worth
posting here and, maybe, elsewhere.

Apologies for my ignorance to all .....		werner @ ut-ngp
