[leafnode-list] Segmentation fault in texpire 20050412

Hi-

I've been having some problems recently with one particular server, 
where old posts keep getting reloaded as new posts by leafnode.  I've 
also been seeing messages about damaged groupinfo file, which a 
fetchnews -f doesn't cure.  I even tried deleting the file in 
leaf.node for the server in quesion, but no joy.

Since I was running an old Alpha version, I decided to update to the 
current one (20050412).  Having done so, texpire stops with a 
segmentation fault.  I'm not sure if this is because of the state of 
my spool or not.

Here is a stack trace (I hope I did this right)...

#0  0x804ab89 in doexpiregroup (g=0x0, n=0x8071780 "", expire=
1112886914) at texpire.c:773
#1  0x804afdd in expiregroups () at texpire.c:918
#2  0x804b51d in main (argc=1, argv=0xbffff6f4) at texpire.c:1101

Does this help pin dowm the problem, or do I need to provide more 
information?

Regards,

    	John
