Ah, nice. The documentation is obscure; from the changelog in Gnus info:
* The option `message-citation-line-format' controls the format
of the "Whomever writes:" line. You need to set
`message-citation-line-function' to
`message-insert-formatted-citation-line' as well.
The default is not clearly spelled out, and could probably do with an explicit
copy of that information in the help for `message-citation-line-format'.

I didn't notice that I have customized that variable some time back, either,
so the default doesn't match my running system. :)
