According to RFC2047, section 5:

    + An 'encoded-word' MUST NOT appear within a 'quoted-string'.

    + An 'encoded-word' MUST NOT be used in parameter of a MIME
      Content-Type or Content-Disposition field, or in any structured
      field body except within a 'comment' or 'phrase'.

so the above headers are invalid.

You may try joining the lines and unfolding them by hand, and perhaps then  
you could convince the decode_header function to work in this case...
