OK, digging further I see from directors/README:

On entry, the "local_part" field of the address points to the
local part we are dealing with, with any prefix and/or suffix
removed.

So this is at least the intended behaviour. So, I wondered if I could
rewrite the recipients back to how they should be. I then see from
http://www.scit.wlv.ac.uk/appdocs/exim/spec_34.html:

it is not possible to rewrite envelope recipients at transport
time.

So I'm stuck, it would appear. Any workarounds?
