[ cc and followup-to address@hidden; see start of thread at
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-devel/2010-07/msg00463.html ]

Here is a minimal Perl file showing what happens.

The Debbugs's MIME.pm, with the decode and encode functions, can be
viewed at eg

http://bzr.donarmstrong.com/debbugs/branches/emacsbugs/Debbugs/MIME.pm

(I think that is essentially the same as the version in use.)

I guess this is a bug in the encode_rfc1522 function, but I don't
really know anything about encoding, so if anyone has any insight it
would be appreciated.

#!/usr/bin/perl

use strict;
use warnings;

use Debbugs::MIME qw(decode_rfc1522 encode_rfc1522);

my $str = 'address@hidden (Johan =?utf-8?Q?Bockg=C3=A5rd?=)';
my $dec = decode_rfc1522($str);
my $enc = encode_rfc1522($dec);

print $enc, "\n";  # -> address@hidden (Johan =?UTF-8?Q?Bockg=C3=A5rd)?=
