I have been having a weird problem with rn lately.  It doesn't seem
to like the group comp.sys.ibm.pc.  While in this group most of the
functions of rn (f,F,r,R,^n,^p...) don't work.  If I try to use one
of them I get 'Caught a SIGSEV--.newsrc restored' error message.
This doesn't happen in any of the other groups read. It does this
for all users on the system.  I have checked over the .newsrc files
and the active file and not found anything out of order. I even completely
removed the comp/sys/ibm/pc directory from my system and let news re-create
a new one.

Another minor annoyance, rn has started showing cross-postings when reading
news.  It used to not show them.

I would greatly appreciate any and all help on these problems.
