I think the necessary approach involves interpreting data in the vCard "content model" before interpreting data in the quoted-printable "content model". That is, follow the vCard rules around line formatting to first reconstruct encoded content, then do what you would normally do with that encoded content. It's a bit like parsing XML and then attempting to read text from the document's parsed representation, rather than just matching a particular region with a regular expression and finding that it yields "<" and ">" instead of the expected "<" and ">".
