CScript::ExtractAddress is expected to return false for unknown transactions, but instead returns gibberish, at least partly due to detection of the "change" script.

Has this ever been fixed?

No, I still see its results in listtransactions.

BTW, this manifests in listtransactions as "address" : "1Wh4bh",

Update: ExtractDestination seems to return the correct values, but listtransactions still shows the gibberish. Maybe related to #1848
