There was a patch written.  The following is the header of the patch.
You should be able to get it from your server yourself.  Let me know
if you can't.  I haven't instituted the patch yet, choosing, in the
interim to add the Lines: header myself.  Some news servers add the
line themselves w/o the posting software doing it, and that's the
reasoning I've heard that GNUS didn't include it originally.
