thanks for this analysis and work!

Here are the plausibly relevant env vars i have set (generated by
running `M-1 M-! printenv` from within emacs itself and then manually
pruning for things that include either my name or e-mail address):
```
DEBFULLNAME=Daniel Kahn Gillmor
DEBEMAIL=dkg@fifthhorseman.net
DEBSIGN_MAINT=Daniel Kahn Gillmor <dkg@fifthhorseman.net>
EMAIL=dkg@fifthhorseman.net
```
None of this seems wrong to me; or even if it does, it still ought to be
able to be correctly interpreted by debian-bug.el, and de-duplicated.
I decided to look in ~/.reportbugrc and i find i have the following settings:
```
reportbug_version "5.0"
mode standard
ui text
no-cc
list-cc-me
```
I have no recollection of setting either no-cc or list-cc-me, and i
confess i don't really understand why these options are distinct.
Perhaps this was from ancient run (or runs?) of `reportbug --configure`?
Without modifying any env vars, I tried commenting out both the `no-cc`
and `list-cc-me` options in ~/.reportbugrc, and with both of those
removed, the generated X-Debbugs-Cc line after a `M-x debian-bug` was
just:
```
X-Debbugs-Cc: none, Daniel Kahn Gillmor <dkg@fifthhorseman.net>
```
So perhaps with the fix you have pending, this will be resolved.
Thanks!
