Ah, that's it!! Misread the bts code. The bug is not in bts at all, it's in mail (presumably /usr/bin/mail), which is called if neither DEBEMAIL nor EMAIL are set. So whichever package you have which provides the mail executable is the one which is sending unencoded 8-bit names. Please could you reassign this bug to that package?
