Whether Gmane is violating RFC or not isn't my concern. What is my concern is that the way they create these headers is breaking the two rules in the subject line. Apparently a fix is already in place to prevent these two rules from being applied to list mail.
I only adjusted FSL_HELO_BARE_IP_2, I didn't take a look at RCVD_NUMERIC_HELO.
Now that the exact nature of the problem is known, maybe the test can be modified to work with some list mail, but not this particular 'flavor'.
That's a possibility. Having Received: exceptions for certain cases may be justified, but that has to be weighed against the possibility of a spammer forging a Received: header that allows the message to bypass an effective rule.
