Found out why this happened, now I have 500+ articles to catch up on.
When the (2nd?) newgroup control message went out it left the time in
$NEWSLIB/active.times earlier than the time in $NNLIB/GROUPS so
nnmaster was thinking "hmm, still nothing new in c.o.3.q".
I'm surprised the cnews software allows duplicate entries in the
active and active.times files.
