It's a disk problem on news.gmane.org.  Some of the overview files are
corrupt.  I'm investigating at the moment, but so far it's been more
head-scratching than anything else.  I think it may perhaps be an issue
with the RAID1 system, but it all seems so weird.

No messages are actually missing, so the overview files can be
regenerated, and everything will be OK again.  But I don't want to do
that until I understand what the issue really is.
