The test points were changed from returning a value of 127.0.0.2 to 127.0.0.126 as of about a year ago. I neglected to announce the change, though it was mentioned on the SURBL discussion list. Announcing now. 127.0.0.126 represents all ones for the bits of all existing lists. This was a suggestion from one of the SpamAssassin developers.
