I very often run Gnus from an SSH session and that session often gets
terminated at random times, so I get a .newsrc-dribble all the time, even
though I only very rarely run two Gnus sessions at the same time.

I.e. the .newsrc-dribble thingy is like the autosave file #foo# but not
like the lock file .#foo, even though the two are somewhat related.
