I've gotten several replies to the question, and based on the answers
they're from people who know. I promised to post the answer:
Yes. Depending on the email client [and possibly how the user has it
set up to thread emails], changing the subject line *could* do something
like start a new thread, especially if the email header block is
changed. OTOH, if the content of the email has drifted far enough from
the subject that changing the subject makes sense, by all means do. A
string of threaded emails where the subject says nothing about the
content isn't real useful.

Question: Does changing the subject line foul up those who read their
email as a threaded list?
