    Is there a bug in vnews? This question relates to BNEWS 2.11.19.

	Problem: vnews skips articles cross posted in other groups.

	Question: Is this normal behaviour for vnews?

    I find this behaviour very annoying. I don't read some of the cross-
posted groups, so I end up MISSING many articles.

	The compile time flag DOXREFS seems to imply this can be changed. It's
documented to do this for threaded news readers in the Install doc. This
flag does not alter vnews in a simular fashion.
