Benny, it's not about *my* DKIM signature. And it is perfectly legal and
has a special purpose to double sign some headers, called oversigning.

If my signature didn't verify at your end, then it might be a problem at
your end as my DKIM signature verified at the mailing list host (as you can
see from from the ARC-Authentication-Results header and it still verified
at my host when it came back from the list (both Spamassassin and
OpenDKIM). OTOH if more people have problems with my DKIM signature then
I'd like to hear that.

This has nothing to do with it! The problem arises at the OP's end...

Yes, that is the problem here, but that cannot be fixed by the people
running the ML, only be the original authors, as it concerns the DKIM
signatures of the original authors.

IMHO altering/adding those headers will happen *before* ARC signing or else
the ARC signature will break immediately and will be useless...
