Antoine -

Admittedly I only looked this over quickly, so apologies if I've
misunderstood what you are trying to do, but think you would want to do
something like the following in privatemsg_new_form():

$node = node_load(arg(3));

$form['header']['subject'] = array(
  '#type' => 'textfield',
  '#title' => t('Subject');
  '#default_value' => $node->title,
  '#size' => 50,
  '#maxlength' => 65,
);

Also, if privatemsg_new_form() is a function inside privatemsg.module,
rather then editing it directly, you may want to look into using
hook_form_alter to modify the form externally so that you don't have to hack
the module.
