Subject: RFC-2231 vs. RFC-2047

Hi,

Gnus appears to have some difficulties handling RFC-2231, I haven't even
checked if it's supposed to be implemented. This is from the Usefor
mailing list, a summary line:

R  20040303T162159 [  20: Charles Lindsey ] Re: =?us-ascii*la?q?Re:_?= Re:

This is a language specification according to RFC-2231 section 5 in
context with RFC-2047. reformime (ships with maildrop) decodes this
fine, and I find not obvious flaws.

I'd rather have the subject be "Re: Re: Re:" which, albeit only a tiny
bit less ugly, is the right thing to show.
