The two files that are linked together are the one in the main cache
directory and the one in the lasttime directory. The one in the
prevtime1 directory is a copy of the old version of the page. It was
linked to the one in the main cache directory when it was first
created.
What WWWOFFLE does is that when a URL is fetched it is stored in the
cache directory (in this case http/news.gmane.org) and a link to it is
made from the lasttime directory. When the lasttime directories are
cycled round lasttime is renamed to prevtime1, prevtime1 to prevtime2
etc.
If the URL is fetched when there is already a copy in the prevtime*
directory then that linked copy becomes the only copy when the
original cached file is deleted. This is what happened to you in this
case, the prevtime1 file is a copy of the previous version of the page
and will only last until the cycling of the lasttime/prevtime indexes
causes it to be deleted.
