 *                             It is safe to remove backlog files manually,
 *                             if it's desired to throw away the backlog.
 *
 * Backlog files are also processed by innduct.  We find the oldest
 * backlog file which is at least a certain amount old, and feed it
 * back into our processing.  When every article in it has been read
 * and processed, we unlink it and look for another backlog file.
 *
 * If we don't have a backlog file that we're reading, we close the
 * defer file that we're writing and make it into a backlog file at
 * the first convenient opportunity.
