 There is no Subject line in the PR template presented to the user.
 After the user finishes filling out the PR template, send-pr adds a Subject line with a copy of the Synopsis.
 I guess, GNATS shows the Subject just like any other field.
 send-pr ensures, that Subject and Synopsis are the same (Have a look at some random PRs).

 I also have another patch, which adds a dummy file after each file.
 GNATS does not recognize every other file.
 This works around the problem.
 The proper solution would be to correct the problem in GNATS.
