* Header folding inserts one space too many?

Sometimes, Gnus transforms a Subject header like this

/----
| Subject: foo bar
\----

into several lines, like this:

/----
| Subject: foo
|   bar
\----

Note that the second line starts with two spaces.  But the RFC says
that in headers, CRLF followed by a whitespace character is equivalent
to the whitespace character.  So this would be the same as

/----
| Subject: foo  bar
\----

which has one space too many.
