  successfull rebuild of active file.

  path will be asked (if the file innshellvars was found).

  spool report includes uucp logging too and could be sent to a newsgroup.

  would be automatically merged to the local active file.
  The newsgroups $HOSTNAME.spool and $HOSTNAME.test will be written during 
  installation to localhost.active and localhost.newsgroups files,
  so that they will be created by the next run of rebuild.active
  New group "control.cancel" will be added on assembly the new active file. 
- spool.down and spool.up are renamed to nntp.down and nntp.up
  No need for <hostname> parameter. It will be resolved by newshosts.
