Well, perhaps you accidentaly caused that group te be read unthreaded?

This can be seen either by looking directly in your .newsrc; if the 
article range starts with a '0' instead of a '1', the group will be read 
unthreaded.

Another way to see it is to press 'Q' in the group-overview, and then 
manually skip through the groups. Threaded groups are preceeded by 
'======', unthreaded ones by '******'.

If that's not the case then I have no idea what happened.
