There was an unusual problem on freefall meaning that messages got
``injected'' multpiple times into the outbound mail lists
(i.e. freebsd-hackers-outgoing, or whatever). As yet, no-one knows
what caused this, and it seemed to clear itself up before we managed
to get in and investigate. We found some illegal list subscriptions,
but nothing that would cause what we were seeing. All I can say is
``sorry'' :-(

P.S. JMB has copies of headers from duplicated e-mail which proves it
was a freefall problem unlike one anyone on the root alias has ever
seen before
