Package: slrn
Version: 0.9.8.1pl1-28
Severity: normal

The multipart.sl macro included with slrn does not behave correctly.  
When a binary file specifies both a file number and a part number in the 
subject line, the part numbers are not grouped into a single thread as 
the macro suggests.  For example, a subject of:

Binary file (##/20)

will work fine with the multipart.sl macro, but the subject line:

Binary [1/10] First file part (##/20)

will not be grouped properly into the same thread.  

The multipart.sl macro has not changed since the 0.9.8.1-6 release in 
sarge, where this bug did not exist.  However the etch version 
(0.9.8.1pl1-28) has been built against s-lang 2 rather than s-lang 1.  
This change to s-lang 2 suggests that multipart.sl must be fixed to work 
with s-lang 2 properly.
