While it's not strictly compliant, it's pretty close (It fails only the

The require-valid-helo test is actually rather important.  It is a complex
policy using 'include:' to simulate logical negation.  If you got that
wrong, you are likely to get other complex policies wrong.  

The main problem is that I don't quite understand what the test's supposed to 
do, so I asked in spf-devel about it.

The  exp-syntax-error is not as critical.

The whole exp support is untested/half-done anyway.

Debugging is twice as hard as writing the code in the first place. 
Therefore, if you write the code as cleverly as possible, you are, 
by definition, not smart enough to debug it. --Brian W. Kernighan
