The issue is specifically the function notmuch-clean-address. Evaluate
the following

    (notmuch-clean-address "Alice <al...@fifthhorseman.net>, 
b...@fifthhorseman.net")
    (notmuch-clean-address "Alice <al...@fifthhorseman.net>, Bob 
<b...@fifthhorseman.net>")

In my opininion both should fail to parse (which would tell the rest of
the code to use the raw string, afaik. But notmuch-clean-address is
using regex to tackle the problem, so bugs are not exactly a
surprise. On the other hand, I also tried the fancier function
ietf-drums-parse-address, and it does something similarly inconsistent
between the two cases.
