I think it would be more surprising that a `g' changes what's in a
Summary buffer, really. You may be working in that buffer and have
things sorted in a particular way, etc.
If you want to have the new articles inserted into the buffer, you can
use the `/ N' command in the summary buffer.
So I think this works as designed, and I'm closing this bug report.
