I don't know if this is intentional, but it looks like gitweb discards everything after the first line starting with 'Signed-off-by:' on the log page. This will in some cases remove valuable log information when a second author or the committer adds additional comments to a commit:

        <log message by author>

        Signed-off-by: <author>

        <log message by committer>

        Signed-off-by: <committer>

The commit page gets it right, which is why I suspect it might just be a way to trim the amount of text on the log page.

I also noticed that there is a 'faulty' signed-off-by line in commit 14ebb908e10f068dc1901d35f4b716bc69143d19 in case the above is intentional. Dunno if that should be matched by relaxing the regexp a little.
