[snipped description/example.  Parts of subsequent articles are being
 shown in current article buffer]

Yes.  I've seen it, for one.  It doesn't look like a slow connect
problem, though the slow connect may make it more apparent.  I saw it on
a large group (`soc.culture.indian' in fact.  ~200 new articles, I was
in about the 75th, after generous use of `n' and `T o T k').

BTW, I got the following backtrace when I did `^' on an article, and the
parent wasn't in the summary buffer.

Signaling: (error "format specifier doesn't match argument type")
  format("%s-%d" "gnu.misc.discuss" "<91c2r1ur.fsf@mihalis.demon.co.uk>")
