## $Revision: 1.7 $
## Tally/update the newgroup/rmgroup control log.
## Merge in a log that contains newgroup/rmgroup control messages so that
## the "control.log" file is updated to contain the new counts of how
## often each group has been newgroup'd or rmgroup'd. This is run by
## scanlogs, which prepares this from the control-message handlers if
## control.ctl specifies logging.
