Multiline subjects work just fine, actually.
Looks like a documentation problem

Description:
------------
an Mime-encoded UTF-8 subject is limited to 47 characters, because php
doesn't allow \n into $subject of the mail function, and RFC 2047
requires CRLF SPACE to seperate multiple lines of encoded text
php documentation:
<quote>mail() [...] $subject [...] must not contain any newline
characters, or the mail may not be sent properly.</quote>
RFC 2047
<quote>An 'encoded-word' may not be more than 75 characters long,
including 'charset', 'encoding', 'encoded-text', and delimiters. If it
is desirable to encode more text than will fit in an 'encoded-word' of
75 characters, multiple 'encoded-word's (separated by CRLF SPACE) may be
used.</quote>
