There were several followups on the same day.  The diret parent of your
article was cross-posted to comp.lang.c and sci.stat.math by Anton
Shepelev (his was the first cross-posted article in the thread).

Thanks, so it looks like a failure by GigaNews to retrieve the
recent posts.

I did see a bunch of cross-posted followups. I don't know C,
and I thought there could be more context.

Looking at original, absent posts is something I've done dozens
of times over the years.  Never a problem, except fora time or two
with posts from the 1990s.  I've used GigaNews since my regular
ISP stopped providing Usenet access, maybe 15 years ago.
