ICAU: If I read an article in one group, then mark it unread, how can it still appear as unread in groups to which it is crossposted?

This is the MCHASE compile option in the common.h file.  I turned
this off in trn ages ago because I couldn't stand it.  If I use
'M' to set an article as unread in a group, I want it to be there
when I get back, even if I visit a group to which it is cross-
posted and 'X' the whole group.  With MCHASE on I have to be
careful to always 'M' it in every cross-posted group I read until
I actually finish with it.
