Much more, yes.  I haven't seen this, but then again, I'm most often
replying.  If it were only list mail, I'd suspect something in the list
server software, which does some subject munging (e.g. "Re:
[Evolution]", which neither of us entered manually), but that wouldn't
explain this problem in non-list mail.  Maybe there's a problem with an
MTA somewhere messing up headers?  If you send the same message to
multiple recipients, and some of them get the subject and others don't,
then I suspect that it's an MTA issue (or an MTA-MUA interaction) rather
than a pure MUA bug.  I can't find any other reports of this, by the
way.
