How hard would it be to add a little resilience to nntpfs' reading of the news
server?

I can get a minimal listing of groups, terminated by

 bad nntp response: alt.chinchilla 0000039620 0000039440 y
 alt.childrens-camps 0000000191 0000000191 y
 syntax error in group lst, line 100790

Unfortunately alt.chinchilla appears alphabetically well before comp.os.*, or
any other group I'm interested in reading.
