Now that you've found the problem, I can lamely provide the story behind
it.  The original gnatsweb maintainers didn't think that the GNATS_ADDR
should be listed on the To line, cf my original note about this:
	http://sources.redhat.com/ml/bug-gnats/1999-08/msg00075.html

although everyone else agreed that this should be done.  It's been
a local patch on gcc.gnu.org/sourceware ever since--it must have
been accidentally dropped in one of the upgrades.  (it's clear that
the modification has needed to change over time, and it's always
a little tricky to merge those in correctly.)

There is a new gnatsweb maintainer these days, and I'd wager he
may be ameanable to accepting this change.

Jason
