Turns out that was a false-positive, gmime (via pan) screwing things up 
on the reading end -- it's OK in cache, which should mean OK as kmail 
sent it.

OK, bug finally filed.  FWIW in the process I resurrected my old gnome 
bugzie login which I hadn't used in years, so hey, might get active on 
pan bugs again. =:^)  Anyway:

gmime 2.6.16-2.6.18 split references headers in the wrong place, 2.6.15 
works fine

https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=709031

I mention this thread there and recommend he check it out on gmane via 
pan or whatever (I link the web version, but that doesn't have references 
headers to check), so now that I've linked back to the bug from here, 
there's a link both ways. =:^)

As the original discoverer, feel free to add your input to the bug. =:^)

(I'm sick, runny nose, sinuses, sore throat, I think fever.  Well, fever 
ups the metabolism and I couldn't sleep, and I expect I'll call in sick 
today, so got it filed!  Now to take some ibuprofen and eat a bit so it's 
not on an empty stomach, and go horizontal, even if I can't sleep.  Maybe 
a(nother) hot shower b4 the horizontal...)
