Also running recent (3-4)days 5.8.4 but not having that trouble.

Make sure the message ID that is in ^References:  is the one you think
it is.

I opened comp.editors .. found a thread with several entries went to
the third or fourth marking the previous ones read.  hit "^" and
jumped back up the tree.  Closed then reopene "M-g" and found an as
yet unread message in the same thread and even though the already read
messages weren't loaded ... the "^" still jumped back up the tree as
expected.

Can't think what might be causing your problem.  Only examine the
References field closely to be sure what is being called.
