 We have recently been starting to compile INN in 64-bit on our (newer)
 64-bit Linux spool servers. Since some time I have noticed we see more and
 more of  ..

 It looks likes articles are being 'overwritten' after some period of time

 arrive 'complete', but after some weeks they get broken, which would imply
 something is writing to the spool file at the wrong place ... which might
 explain the overflows.
