Fix to inews.c -C option
This fix seems right to me, but I'd never looked at B news till today, so...
Symptom: inews -C would blow up when the inews to net.msg.ctl went out,
       cause we did the mknewgrp stuff too early.  It's repeated later by
       the code handling the .ctl.
Version: the B release just sent out.
