When I posted the above-referenced article, I had not tested my fix
to the path truncation bug since no news had come through with
long paths.  I have now tested it, and it works as predicted.  You
may notice some path-truncated articles emanating from hao after
I posted the fix.  This was due to rnews having gotten unlinked from
inews and the old version being used.   That has all been corrected
now.  To repeat, the fixed version of header.c posted to net.sources
does fix the path truncation bug (and possibly the 0 lines bug).
