Obviously you didn't have to wait :) Sendmail dkim-milter Beta8, made
available shortly after midnight CET, now runs without fault on Postfix
2.4.6 with custom rpms built on FC6 and RHL5.1, the latter being a
production machine. libmilter is 8.14.1 on the FC6 machine and 8.13.8 on
the RHL5 machine (there's not a hope in hell of Red Hat adopting any
newer version for RHL5, that's not its policy).

I'm sorry I didn't contribute with debug info for Beta7, I was out for a
while until early this morning and didn't see the relevant posts. A diff
-u for Beta7 and Beta9 filter.c shows that you changed a lot of relevant
code.

Thanks for accommodating the Postfix people, now Wietse doesn't have to
change the milter code :)

Best,
