I have noticed that some mail/news gateway software makes at least
a small effort to build a valid References: line, in that if it finds
a valid-looking message-ID in an In-Reply-To: line it puts that ID
into a References: line.

Of course, this may cause a new problem, if the message cited was
never gatewayed into USENET. But I doubt it.
