Subject: Pine 3.91 bug in .newsrc updating, and workaround

A bug has been discovered in .newsrc updating in Pine 3.91.  If the user 
opens a newsgroup that is not currently in the .newsrc file (via the G 
command), deletes some messages, and then quits, Pine will write a line 
to the .newsrc that is not terminated with a newline.

The workaround for this problem is to subscribe to new newsgroups before 
opening them.  Subscribing writes a proper .newsrc line which is then 
updated properly.

This bug is fixed in Pine 3.92.
