Sometimes (and actually very often) GNUS shows in the Subject buffer
that there are 0 lines in the particular article. However it is always 
not true. Very inconvinient. Does anyone know how to fix this bug? 
It might be something wrong with nntp, not with GNUS.

Well, that's the patch for posting, isn't it ?
When I am reading news this doesn't help me at all.
And then, this patch is from the version 3.14.2 to 3.14.3.
Anyone heard of the version 3.14.2 lately ?

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.
