overview write error

[Gunther Nitzsche]

Hi list,

while doing a "makehistory -b -f history.n -O -l 30000 -I"
I see a few errors like:

makehistory: cannot write overview data "@03325A45520000000000012E81AF00000017@"
makehistory: cannot write overview data "@03325A4552000000000001C67C2700000017@"
makehistory: cannot write overview data "@03325A45520000000000024AEAAA00000017@"

Looking at the articles I see they are all posted in Japanese:
Message-ID: <20031017$001$1 at nerimadors.or.jp>
Message-ID: <20031024$001$1 at nerimadors.or.jp>
Message-ID: <20031031$001$1 at nerimadors.or.jp>

while actually the overview-file (tradspool) has been written:
bash-2.03$ ls -la
-rw-r--r--   1 news     news        1606 Nov 14 13:14 japan.tmp.disaster.miyakejima.DAT
-rw-r--r--   1 news     news        5360 Nov 14 13:14 japan.tmp.disaster.miyakejima.IDX
bash-2.03$ tail -1 japan.tmp.disaster.miyakejima.DAT
212     about this Newsgroup (B$3$N%K%e!<%9%0%k!<%W$N;H$$J})[20031031]   B;~!9$O!"FI$s

      japan.tmp.disaster.miyakejima:212 japan.tmp.disaster.tottori-west:212

(on 1 line)

So is it possible, that one of these japanese characters breaks
something? And why is the system reporting an error, when it
actually did write overview-data? Should I be afraid?
