Rn bug patch #1 (REPOSTED)

System: rn version 4.1
Bug #: 1
Priority: HIGH HIGH HIGH!
Subject: %i and %R use old Article-I.D. line, resulting in <>
Index: intrp.c
Prereq: 4.1

Description:
	Rn uses the old Article-I.D. line instead of the new Message-ID line
	when interpolating %i or %R.  I didn't notice this before because
	we just now recompiled inews without the OLD header lines.

Repeat-By:
	Just post a followup article on a system without OLD header lines.
	The references line will be missing the current message id, and
	the ATTRIBUTION line will start "In article <>..."

Fix:	From rn, say "| patch -d DIR", where DIR is your rn source directory.
	Outside of rn, say "cd DIR; patch <thisarticle".  If you don't have
	the patch program, apply the following by hand, or get patch.
