Found a problem when running ncsu and using helldiver.

Ncsu apparently does some strange thing to the news directories.  After
saving off my join file (when I have finished reading news), and then
reopening helldiver, all read articles reappear.

Secondly, helldiver reports that I have 4294967295 articles in
the directory.

Also, empty newsgroups pop up.  For example, I expire junk articles
hourly.  I get: junk 0/4294967295.

Now, the question is:  Is this a problem with ncsu or HellDiver?  I
suspect the former.

Anybody have an address on the author of ncsu11?
