Hello, I got 110 emails, something goes wrong? :-)

No, it's a side-effect of having Misc/NEWS pasted as a comment into a PR and the Roundup webhook thinking the issues were comments that warranted connecting the PR with the issue.  Either we (a) don't worry about it as people typically don't paste Misc/NEWS into a comment, (b) cap the number of possible issues in a single webhook event, or (c) don't pick up issue numbers from comments and only do it from PR titles.
