Issues with cc-cmd

Hi Guys,
I am facing a strange issue with git send-email, with cccmd and was
looking for some help.
I am using it with Linux Kernel..
I used get-maintainers today to submit few patches for OPP framework
and that is defined as below in MAINTAINERS:
OPERATING PERFORMANCE POINTS (OPP)
M: Viresh Kumar [off-list ref]
M: Nishanth Menon [off-list ref]
M: Stephen Boyd [off-list ref]
L: linux-pm@vger.kernel.org
S: Maintained
T: git git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vireshk/pm.git
F: drivers/base/power/opp/
F: include/linux/pm_opp.h
F: Documentation/power/opp.txt
F: Documentation/devicetree/bindings/opp/
The parenthesis in the subsystem-name causes the cc list to look like:
Cc: linaro-kernel@lists.linaro.org,
linux-pm@vger.kernel.org,
Viresh Kumar [off-list ref],
Krzysztof Kozlowski [off-list ref],
Greg Kroah-Hartman [off-list ref],
Len Brown [off-list ref],
linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org (open list),
linux-pm@vger.kernel.org) (open list:OPERATING PERFORMANCE POINTS
(OPP),
Nishanth Menon [off-list ref],
Pavel Machek [off-list ref],
Stephen Boyd [off-list ref],
Viresh Kumar [off-list ref]
Look at the second linux-pm entry here, it adds a ')' at the end of
the list's address and removes it from the end of the line.
And so that becomes an invalid address to git-send-email.
Dropping () from the subsystem name fixes it though..
The output of get_maintainers looks fine, but when its being used by
putting following into .gitconfig:
[sendemail]
cccmd = scripts/get_maintainers
it doesn't work well..
