To late to tell on this go around since I've 'B m' ed to a temp group 
ran 'C-u G del' then remade the group and moved the messages back.
They all have orderly numbers now.  Except for some kind of system
where every 12th file is a different sequence number.

Looking closely in the directories involved I was suprised to find the
group that had been nuked with 'C-u G del' to still be there and still
have one lonesome article in it (# 1)  The culprit I guess.  it was a
recent article though -- part of this thread.

If it comes up again though I'll know how to proceed and what is
actually happening -- Thanks
