The forms are the same because of my changes -- In the past, the
query-pr.cgi script only showed the form where one could query only a
specific PR (the first form now). The -summary.cgi script used to
generate a full list of all open PR in the GNATS by default, which was
not considered as an ideal solusion, so this behavior was changed as
well to show the form. The main difference between these two scripts is
that -summary.cgi is used to search the GNATS for PRs matching
specific conditions, and query-pr.cgi is used only to query specific PR
from the GNATS.

Other than that, the diff looks fine to me.
