Why would we need such a hack?  `compose-mail' already receives very
clearly the destination address.

more to the point: we start with a call to Gnus's `composefunc' with an
explicit "to" address (with value report-emacs-bug-address).  And we end
with a message that uses a different "to" address.  So the problem seems
to be on Gnus's side only.
