Good catch. The implementation with this patch feel philosophically dirty, in that the new "--rfc" is no longer "we use a different subject-prefix" but "this new option is independent from the subject-prefix; whatever string that other option receives goes before the title, and our string goes even before that". And to reflect that independent nature better, it should just grab the string into a separate local variable and combine the two into a single prefix string after parse_options() returns. Thanks.
