Does such re-submission using TCP after a truncated UDP

No, it does not count against the SPF process limits.  Maybe it
should, but it is almost impossible for the application program
(e.g. the SPF implementation) to detect with a long SPF record
required the caching DNS resolver to fall back to TCP, or when it
simply used EDNS0 and a UDP packet that was larger than 512 bytes.
