I can't reproduce this, I get the output below which seems fine.

"To: \"=?iso-8859-1?q?Gro=DFjohann?=, K (Kai)\"
  <Kai.Grossjohann@CS.Uni-Dortmund.DE>
 "

This is with EMACS_21_1_RC.  The output you get seems invalid to me.

It appears I was wrong, quimby.gnus.org does not alter headers, at
least the last few messages CC bug-gnu-emacs properly, but the
original submission did not.
