It is. And reflecting the last incidence, it returns the first article the
Server ever got in his yet short lifespan.  However, this time I noticed
that, in some (very, very rare) cases, another article is fetched. However, it
is also the wrong one. I didn't watch it fetching the right article yet.

Anyway, of course I rebuilt the history again (this time using makedbz -o) and
now it works again - just like the other day. However, it would be quite
interesting to know why it will probably fail the next time :-(
