   Ok, in that script nothing happens to hdr after loading from the MSGbase. But   
   in nntpservice.js, before being passed to function getReferenceTo, it is   
   processed by function parse_news_header (in newsutil.js). It seems   
   hdr.reply_id is then an array of string (typeof "object"). I think it happens   
   here:   
      
    hdr.reply_id = data.match(/<[^\<]*>$/);
