Hi Andreas,
Without the following patch, storing links to Gnus Article buffers
fails on CVS Emacs, as they (at least in my setup -- IMAP) always
contain a "From " line, which can't be parsed as an RFC822 header.
Could you elaborate a bit, i.e. provide such an example mail?
This is your mail as shown by Gnus after toggling the headers:

Looking at the patch, I get the impression, that it's a solution to a
problem you created on your own. ;-)
If the first line of a mail starts with "From ", I'd say it's broken.
"From " lines are for example used in the mbox format[0], so I wasn't
too surprised to find it in my IMAP mails as well. However, you very
well might be right that this is a bug in the MDA (which stores the
mails, including the disputed first line, in a Maildir folder, which
is
then served by via IMAP).

The space has the ASCII code 32, so IMO it's not allowed as header
field
name.
I'm aware of that; but I never said that the "From " line is
supposed to
be a header field -- it preceeds the email headers.
