That should not have happened.

Not a limit that low. I'm not sure if we support 2*10^9 or twice as much
articles per group.

No, that Should Not Happen[tm]. Can you feed the output of your grep
through a hexdump utility and make sure that there are no control
characters that escape the display? Try hexdump, od, xxd (comes with
vim) if you don't know where to start?

Has that "double" newsgroup arrived recently? Could you show the lines
that grep offered?

Thanks for so patiently reporting your problems, your reports are much
appreciated.
