The obvious solution to the C News checkgroups problem is for C News
sites simply to inhale the B News checkgroups script whole.  All the
script does is egrep/sed/comm crud.  Apparently the copyright on B
News prevents Henry & Geoff from including it in their distribution
(based on past conversations), but I see nothing preventing individual
sites from picking it up.
