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.
