Ah. The problem is that git-send-email unconditionally adds a
message-id. Usually git-format-patch doesn't add one, but for obvious
reasons, it must when doing --thread. Here is a fix.

Isn't this called inside a loop?  If the outgoing message does not
originally have "Message-Id:", does the loop correctly reinitialize
$message_id to undef, or does this change make everybody reuse the same
$message_id over and over again?

I have a feeling that --thread to format-patch is a misfeature.  Why is
it needed if you are feeding the output to send-email?

I wonder if stripping existing "Message-Id:" away just like we strip
away "Date:" from @xh would be a much saner fix.
