It may help to use a rewrite rule that modifies the to-Header:
*@target.system.org @relay.system.org:$local_part@$domain T
Then ignore the local system in the DNS Router
ignore_target_hosts = 0.0.0.0 : 127.0.0.0.0/8 : this.system.org
This should work without enabling the percent hack.

behavior only happened when I defined the hosts as satellite systems and
left the percent hack relay item undefined.

I have forwarded the information to the person who is listed as
maintaining
the Debian package for exim. I have not heard back from them.
Thanks for your assistance with this. Looks like I need to invest in
yet
another O'Reilly book ;-)
