Subject: strip_subject() in HyperArch.py prefix_subject() in CookHeaders.py

    When calling re.sub() to substitute the subject prefix, you have to escape
    the pattern, otherwise prefixes like [C++] cause "multiple repeat"
    exceptions in re.

Also, whitespace normalization and copyright years updates.
