X-Disclaimer: This opinion is mine alone

There is a bug in nn causing group names to be lost in the the .newsrc file.
There is a news group comp.lang.c!!. 
When a unsubscribe is done on this newsgroup the .newsrc file loses the
newsgroups beneath the comp.lang.c!! line.
I solved this by disabling the group in the GROUP file.
