It happens because the Subject line is badly broken, it contains an
embedded CR/LF.  You should probably file a bug report against the
program, 

         X-Mailer: reportbug 2.9, 

that generates this kind of junk.

But of course Gnus should be resilient.  We probably need some test for
embedded linebreaks somewhere in rfc2047-decode-*, but we should be a
bit careful since those functions can affect the performance of summary
buffer generation noticeably.
