It doesn't seem to do the necessary work, though: even having run texpire,
I'm having to let leafnode run and do its own preparatory work.

On this occasion, I killed fetchnews earlier on (it was, and still is, in
danger of overruning my hard disk!)  Presumably that's why I'm having
problems today.

However, I had the same problem earlier on, and I'm not aware of any
problems with that run of fetchnews.
