Yes.  I do not understand how that happens though, even if the article
in question uses CRLF the NOV parsing routine isn't fooled, at least
for me.

If you edebug `nnml-generate-nov-file', does the *nntpd* buffer
contain ^M's after the call to `nnheader-insert-file-contents'?  It
doesn't for me, and I suspect it is a feature but I'm not sure why it
happens.
