Hm, looks like that’s just standard behavior for any template (I tried it with foo{{identity|*bar}}, where Template:identity is just {{{1}}}). Odd, but not a bug.
But this suggests that moving the username out of the {{GENDER}} should be enough to fix the bug. If I understand it correctly, we’re not actually making use of the {{GENDER}} here – it’s just used in the English version of the message to give translators a hint that they can use the function, but they will not apply it to the username itself. For example, the Portuguese translation of wikibase-entity-summary-restore is
Restaurar a revisão $3 {{GENDER:$4|do utilizador|da utilizadora}} [[Special:Contributions/$4|$4]]
where the {{GENDER}} is used to switch between the male and female form of “user”, whereas the username itself ($4) stays the same.
