As quoted from <1990Dec17.101920.11244 at kithrup.COM> by sef at kithrup.com (Sean Eric Fagan):
+---------------
| At work, however, where we use NNTP, and I was far behind in some groups,
| trn gets a SIGSEGV and dies.  At first, I thought it had to do with being,
| oh, 340+ articles behind, but, tonight, when I was reading comp.arch, where
| I had (originally) 66 unread articles, I managed to get throuh 22 of them,
| and then it core dumped between one article and the next.
+---------------

I can't speak to other problems, but I've been using trn for quite some time
(I was a beta tester) and in fact used it to catch up on 2 months of backlog
with no problems.  trn is quite stable on ncoast, and was stable on telotech
until I was forced to ditch news there.

+---------------
| My next complaint with it is that it has the articles in reverse order when
| listing them for thread selection, and if you bypass that, you are at the
| last article, instead of the first.
+---------------

???  I have never experienced this.
