It's a newly reported bug (reported earlier today), but there are implications to threading in the forums for users who upgrade to 13.1 and use NNTP to access the forums.
There's a bug in libgmime 2.6.16 through 2.6.18 (2.6.18 is what comes with 13.1) that incorrectly wraps the References: header, causing misthreading of posts on the server.
libgmime 2.6.19 is reported to have the fix. I've built this on obs and am testing it now, but the issue was found on the bsd platform several months ago, and it is fixed upstream - so all we need is an official build of 2.6.19 in the update channel.
The bug number on bnc (including links to relevant discussion on the pan- users mailing list, the RFC that the build violates, and the bug on the GNOME bug tracker) is 855023:

I realize that I just opened the bug today so it probably just hasn't been reviewed yet, but I wanted to raise awareness since we use NNTP in our forum community, and this has the potential to create confusion in those discussions (indeed, it already has with posts I've made using the broken library).
