Delivered-to seems to be a dark corner of (non)-standardization, but it
does seem that multiple deliver-to headers are relatively common and
more or less make sense:

uncrustify suggests the following indentation change
- strcasecmp (header, "delivered-to") == 0) {
+ strcasecmp (header, "delivered-to") == 0) {

Highest priority seems a bit vague here. Do you mean most recent?
It seems like the commentary in notmuch-reply should also be updated
since it claims received header is special in being concatenated
I would like to see a new test here, especially since the fix is far
from the effect.
The following change is enough to trigger the problem you had
diff --git a/test/T220-reply.sh b/test/T220-reply.sh
index b6d8f42a..0d245497 100755
--- a/test/T220-reply.sh
+++ b/test/T220-reply.sh

OTOH, it probably makes sense to test the case of multiple Delivered-to
headers seperately.
The idiomatic (for notmuch) thing to do for a bug fix is first to add a
test with "test_subtest_known_broken", then to remove that line in the
commit you fix the bug.
