Lately there's been articles with munged headers showing up.
The article, to which this is a followup, is an example.
Here's the header we received:

I.e. no Posting-Version, thus readnews won't accept it. After
adding  that line I was able to post this followup.

But it is a bit heavy if one has to check all the article numbers
for possible holes, then check the corresponding spool directory
and in case it wasn't a true hole after all fix the header in order
to be able to read the article. Of course by that time your .newsrc
file says that you've already read it ...

It shouldn't bee too difficult to track this down.
