/summon Enderman ~ ~ ~ {carried:52,carriedData:{EntityId:Enderman}}
This command will spawn an Enderman holding an Enderman spawner in its hands, but when it puts down the spawner, it'll turn into a normal pig spawner. Same goes for chests, furnaces, hoppers, dispenser, etc.
How to recreate:
1: Do '/summon Enderman ~ ~ ~ {carried:52,carriedData:{EntityId:Enderman}}' about 15 times.
2: wait a couple of minutes untill a block is placed.
3: You'll see that a normal pig spawner has been placed, and not the Enderman spawner that he hold in his hands.

To be fair, we can't tell for certain that they are holding Enderman spawners, however I do feel that this should be looked into.

I think that carriedData is actually the damage value for the block. You know, the data that makes red wool red, and not white.
All spawners when placed are pig spawners, as far as I know.
