After doing a bit more testing, I see this is more obscure than I thought.
The hanging occurs in Berkeley mail when there is entries after the
address "xx (yy)". That is
"Cc: xxx (yy)"       works
"Cc: xxx (yy), zzz"  inifinite loop with "r" command.

The reason for my concern is not so much a local problem -- we can fix
that easily -- but for other's using Berkeley mail on our campus and
on the Internet. Berkeley is used a lot because iot is sort of the
default. I'll still suggest that Elm consider the "name " style
headers because I can't see any thing to lose by going to them, and
the change is easy.
