Aha! (otherwise pronounced "Doh!")...
This item:
dbl.spamhaus.org!=127.0.1.255,127.255.255.252,127.255.255.254,127.255.255.255/$sender_address_domain
because it uses $sender_address_domain (which is tainted), taints the entire string
that is the list for ${filter...} (because string-expansion is done before list-expansion).
Therefore every $item for the filter is tainted, and so the filtered result list is also.
