Yes, it does. Section 5.4 of 4871 goes into quite a lot of detail about that, 
and explains explicitly that you should list a header n+1 times if there are n 
copies of it already if you don't want to allow more headers to be added, or 
not if you do.

It's also quite clear about the need to sign user-visible fields.

All we're doing in this thread is pulling those two points together, and adding 
a dash of observed MUA behaviour w.r.t. messages with multiple Subject headers.

Cheers,
