In case anyone overlooked doc/ChangeLog:

"
71. Recipient callout verification, like sender verification, was using <>
in the MAIL FROM command. This isn't really the right thing, since the
actual sender may affect whether the remote host accepts the recipient or
not. I have changed it to use the actual sender in the callout; this means
that the cache record is now keyed on a recipient/sender pair, not just
the recipient address. There doesn't seem to be a real danger of callout
loops, since a callout by the remote host to check the sender would use
<>.
"

Presumably, the bug you're seeing is a side-effect of that.
