If you need (newer) kernel differences, use the newer kernel until the
SL6.latest kernel bug is isolated and killed.
Can you grab the RH6.1 kernel and try it?  Build environment
magic/voodoo/UnholySacraments can cause weird things.

Users of badly-threaded MUAs like mine (M$ OutLook) would see a new
thread because they go STRICTLY by the text of the subject line.
Users of well-threaded MUAs would see the new post in the old thread,
with a subject change.
It's a situation where you're damned if you do, and double-damned if you
don't.
