In MediaWiki:xyzzy, {{GENDER:|male|female|unknown}} is already addressing
the reader of a messae, i.e. the currently logged in user. I doubt that is
is a good idea to alter this behavour for other namespaces, because it is
possible (though hardly advisable) to transclude those message anywhere
with {{:MediaWiki:xyzzy}} and {{:MediaWiki:xyzzy/zxx}} and with {{int:xyzzy}}
and we were likely to create inconsistencies.

Since contributions are possibly moved or copied around, my preference goes
with something like {{GENDER:username|male|female|unknown}} with a verbatim
user name for the cases this bug is about. That can be had with 
{{GENDER:{{subst:#titleparts:{{PAGENAME}}|1}}|male|female|unknown}} on user
page, user  talk pages, and their subpages, if I am not mistaken.
