Looking at it, I hope this isn't so because it *was* split!
Malcolm, I've 'fixed' my copy of snews (added code to articles.c and
post.c) so that it (a) reads in all the References continuation lines
and (b) splits it on output to 80 characters (unless the message ID is
greater than 80 characters, in which case it just outputs it). The
result can be seen in this message. If you want my changes, mail me and
I'll do a diff (tell me what sort of diff you want as well (some prople
prefer context diffs using -c or -C# rather than the normal line number
based one).
