I don't think anything of any importance hinges on which is the "real" subject.

Which is the correctly phrased sentence?
Thanks.
Both are acceptable, as far as I can tell. I'd prefer the former for formal academic writing, but I wouldn't object to the latter, either.
@FBM,
I'd prefer the latter.
It depends on where you wish to place the emphasis; on "real" or "is".
It seems to me more likely to be "is", which leads me to select the latter.
@FBM,
Well, now it's confirmed.
