Uhm.  Sorry.  I forgot to mention that going from 0.13 to, well,
anything older is totally poison.  

The reason for this strange behavior is that dormant and ticked
articles used to be subsets of the unread articles.  This led to all
kinds of twiddly programming.  I don't like twiddly programming, so in
0.13 they are now ordinary marks lists, just like bookmarks, expirable
marks, etc.  Much cleaner. 

However, it's only possible to go from the old version to the new, not
the other way around.
