Summary: 


  This might help:
  We installed rn while running 2.10.1. We installed the Xref: patch and all
other fixes. We then moved to 2.10.2 (without re-running the Configure file
in rn), made the changes to inews, recompiled rn and we were still getting
those messages in multiple newsgroups.
  I thought there was a problem with the Xref: patch in either rn or inews,
but the problem really was that when you run the Configure shell script, rn
figures out whether you're running 2.10.2 or not (by looking if
/usr/lib/news/inews exists).
  Since we moved to 2.10.2, but never re-run Configure, rn thought we were
still running 2.10.1.
  I run Configure again, recompiled rn and the problem dissapeared.
