email.Header.decode_header() does not correctly deal with multiline
Headerlines.
header.py in revision 54371 (1) changes the behaviour, whereas
previously multiline headers where parsed correctly, header.py 54371
introduced a new regex part, that renders such headers invalid and they
won't be parsed as expected.
Given the following header line (doesn't matter if its parsed from a
mail or read from a string) which represents IMHO a valid RFC2047 header
line:

from email.Header import decode_header
decode_header('=?windows-1252?Q?=22M=FCller_T=22?=\r\n <T.Mueller@xxx.com>')

this will result in:
header.py (54371):
[('=?windows-1252?Q?=22M=FCller_T=22?=\r\n <T.Mueller@xxx.com>', None)]

resp. with header.py (54370):
[('"M\xfcller T"', 'windows-1252'), (' <T.Mueller@xxx.com>', None)]

Actually both seem parsed wrong, but with 54370 the result looks more
sane (the space should be IMO removed). 
Once the CRLF sequence is removed from the header it works fine and all
looks as expected:
>>> decode_header('=?windows-1252?Q?=22M=FCller_T=22?= <T.Mueller@xxx.com>')
[('"M\xfcller T"', 'windows-1252'), ('<T.Mueller@xxx.com>', None)]
