Just for the record:
The bug regarding the wrong handling of Received-SPF headers is reported as
ticket #195 (https://sourceforge.net/p/opendmarc/tickets/195/) with a patch
attached.

I postponed the solution for the general problem regarding the result codes as
that would mean to change the old internal SPF impelementation as well, but as
it seems to be buggy (at least I got completly wrong results from it), I would
like to completely remove that old implementation after the next release (see
ticket #191). After that it makes sense to change the result code handling.
