The following two articles were posted at a local Toronto site. They
have been reposted twice, with *different* IDs to comp.lang.c, by
brl-adm. This has happened to many more articles in comp.lang.c.
I have not noticed it in other groups. The Path: lines are all the same,
as well as the message-IDs. The headers of two sample identical
articles follow.

I have seen it here also on other groups (besides comp.lang.c).
It seems that any posting by brl.arpa caused a re-numbering and subsequently
re-posting of several articles in the same group. Anybody knows the admin
at brl? I can't get a connection to arpa from here.
