I tested pine and gnus:

pine creates:

Subject: Re: [Test] =?ISO-8859-1?Q?test_de_deboguage_des_=E9_et_=E8_dans_le
 ?= =?ISO-8859-1?Q?_header_subject?=

which seems delivered unchanged by Mailman:

Subject: Re: [Test] =?ISO-8859-1?Q?test_de_deboguage_des_=E9_et_=E8_dans_le
 ?= =?ISO-8859-1?Q?_header_subject?=

gnus creates (if configured to strip list-identifiers) :

Subject: Re: test de deboguage des =?iso-8859-1?q?=E9?= et
 =?iso-8859-1?q?=E8?= dans le header subject

which when delivered by mailman becomes

Subject: [Test] Re: test de deboguage des =?iso-8859-1?q?=E9?= et
 =?iso-8859-1?q?=E8?= dans le header subject

this seems the right thing to do also for latin-1 or other encodings ,
is there any chance of getting it integrated to the mainstream
mailman? But I have no idea of the complexity of the task.
