Hm, it doesn't modify the headers here now.  Reverting the changes
makes no difference, either.

The main reason I made the changes was to fill long address lines
in the header part of a reply message according to the value of
`message-field-fillers' (in which `message-fill-field-address' is
mapped to To, Cc, and From headers by default).

In my case the value of `paragraph-start' in a message-mode
buffer is:

"--text follows this line--$\\|[ \t]*$\\|-- $\\|---+$\\|^\f$..."

This is the result of what `message-setup-fill-variables' does,
not due to my customization.

Doesn't something modify it outside of the message-mode?
