when it comes to character encodings I decided to let myself off

However, the module didn't quite produce the result I expected. It
correctly encoded the non-ASCII characters to '=<1byte_hexcode>', but
unexpectedly also added an extra '=\n' sequence to the end of the
string I was encoding.

Not quite. Without further arguments to encode_qp() it splits up long
lines with "=\n" in between. I haven't noticed any "=\n" at the end of
the encoded string, though.

You said that yourself ... without further arguments ...

I have made a similar experience, and my "hack" is even more complicated:

$encoded = join "\n ",
map { tr/ /_/; "=?ISO-8859-15?Q?$_?=" }
split /\s*=\n\s*/, $encoded;

When sending a long subject header via a sendmail pipe, that code makes
at least my email client (Thunderbird) happy...

so I do not understand why don't you use

"=?ISO-8859-15?Q?" . encode_qp($raw_data, "") . "?=";
