CC'ed to -developers to note that pipermail's threading seems either
broken/fragile, and to note that the mbox archives for the -users
list are borked (early apparency is that Pipermail is excessively
restrictive on In-Reply-To header field formats).

Which is then a problem with your mail setup, and is not specific to
either the mail I send, or the mailman lists at Python.Org.  Quoting
the full headers from another message I sent to this forum:

Unfortunately the mbox files for the archives at python.org are
borked, but checking other posts of mine there universally show
correct in-Reply-To: and References: headers.  eg:

No.

No.  This would appear to be another Pipermail bug.  As you can see
here:

  http://www.kanga.nu/archives/MUD-Dev-L/2001Q4/thread.php#00434

my messages thread properly under MHonArc (a tool I know handles
thread headers properly).
