I don't think makeactive will help. I'm surprised somewhat that
makehistory -b didn't clean everything up, but I'm not sure what the
implications of shrinking a CNFS buffer are. But the active file cleanup
will be handled by nightly expire when it detects that articles are no
longer present. (Is expiry working now?)
