And indeed this diff explains the reason:

  [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/srv/debian/pts/www/bin$ svn diff -r1281:1282 
common.py|grep -C 2 raise
  +    targetfile = "%s/%s.txt" % (dir, info['timestamp'])
  +    if os.path.isfile(targetfile):
  +        raise("Aiee, already such message %s" % targetfile)
  +    f = open(targetfile, "w")
       f.write(msg.as_string())

it is dated February 2006. So, starting from there on, duplicate news
are refused on the basis of its timestamp alone.

I will then get rid of duplicates and see what to do with the other
strange files ...

Cheers.
