Synopsis: gnus-summary-reselect-current-group sometimes causes cached
          articles to be deleted from cache.

System: Gnus v0.30 and XEamcs 19.13
        gnus-summary-line-format's value is:
             "%U%R %I%(%[%5N %4L:%B%-20,20uB%]%) %s\n"

Example:

1) Start XEmacs, gnus and enter gnu.emacs.gnus

   here's the summary buffer :

To make things even stranger, if you mark two or more articles before
doing C-u Z R some of them may or may not be deleted from the cache.
I *think* it might have something to do with what line the cursor is
on (in the summary buffer) when you type C-u Z R.
