I discovered what's wrong.  The problem is caused by a bug of
XEmacs 21.4.  Emacs 21.x and XEmacs 21.5 return `0' for the
following form, but XEmacs 21.4 returns nil for it.

(let ((subject "Re: [Exim] Exceptions to globs")
      (regexp "^\\(?:R[Ee]: +\\)*\\(\\[Exim\\] *\\)"))
  (string-match regexp subject))

The reason why the list identifier is removed in the parent
article is that the subject doesn't begin with `Re: '.

A special regexp called `shy group' is there.  XEmacs 21.4
supports it but doesn't seem to work in some cases.  The recent
Gnus uses it in several Lisp modules, however I don't know
whether we should restore all or some as before.

If anything, I don't feel like degenerating them.  Because using
`shy group' is hopeful to improve the performance.  Isn't there
a chance of fixing XEmacs 21.4?
