Possible bug in Mail::Message::Construct::Reply.pm

I think I found a bug in Mail::Message::Construct::Reply.pm.
I've attached sample code to demonstrate the problem.
When creating a reply without a prelude to certain messages, the
replyPrelude() method gets passed an array referance structured like this:
$var = ARRAY(0x88d6b6c)
$var->[0] = Mail::Address=ARRAY(0x88ad018)
$var->[0][0] = "SitePro News"
$var->[0][1] = "[email protected]"
This happens whenever the from address is in the form of:
"someones name" <[email protected]>
The code that is failing is Mail::Message::Construct::Reply.pm, line 226:
my $user
= !defined $who ? undef
: !ref $who ? (Mail::Address->parse($who))[0]
: $who->isa('Mail::Message::Field') ? ($who->addresses)[0]
: $who;
It's error message is:
Can't call method "isa" on unblessed reference at /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.6.1/Mail/Message/Construct/Reply.pm line 226.
Work around: I added a prelude to the reply by hand, using:
my $prelude = $message->replyPrelude($message->get('From'));
It doesn't seem like that should be neccessary, since passing no prelude
attempts to create one anyway.
The attached files are:
"mbox" = the message that is breaking.
"works.pl" = script including manual built prelude
"broke.pl" = script that breaks.
Is this the intended behavior, or does this need fixed?

Search engine robots will follow the link to your site map and will most likely add all your pages to their index.<p> <b>48.</b> Decide what the two or three main keywords are for each page (the words you believe search engine users will type to find your page) and repeat them often in your page title, description meta tag and page body.<p> <b>49.</b> Create a Links page and call it Resources. In it, place links to those sites that have agreed to place a reciprocal link to your page. The more inbound links you have from quality sites with a topic related to your site, the better your site will rank with the search engines.<p> <b>50.</b> Use more text than graphics, and minimize the use of Flash and JavaScript.
