Thank you, Bill.

Sadly, I was thinking more of my situation here, where I don't want panic
log entries for the DKIM parsing failure but do want the (main) logged
information about incoming DKIM generally, than about a proper fix for
<http://bugs.exim.org/show_bug.cgi?id=966>.

I think I'll go ahead and build a sed script that throws my patch into the
source and see what happens on the development server. (Our builds begin by
extracting the source fresh from the tarball, so such things have to happen
with each build.)
