I think it should yield a PermError.

Legalistic reason: "MX 0 ." is illegal because "." is not a valid
FQDN, at least not for what is generally considered an FQDN by the SPF
specification.

The "." is a fully-qualified domain name, just like "/" is an absolute
path name.  It is completely valid.

That's why I added the second part of my sentence.  Or why do we forbid 
"a:1.2.3.4"?  It's a valid FQDN, after all.
