I've seen similar in the past.  I never identified the cause other
than it was only certain posters, possibly certain posting servers
or servers they passed through in common.  There was no fix I could
identify other than hope there would be enough PAR2 files to fix it.

Having said that, I saw this happen in a.b.multimedia.cooking and
others seemed to be able to download the files ok so maybe it's a
combination of posting method or server and an issue with PAN.
