Not true since release 4.50. Here's the ChangeLog entry:
32. The RFC2047 encoding function was originally intended for short strings
such as real names; it was not keeping to the 75-character limit for
encoded words that the RFC imposes. It now respects the limit, and
generates multiple encoded words if necessary. To be on the safe side, I
have increased the buffer size for the ${rfc2047: expansion operator from
1024 to 2048 bytes.
