Yeah, that's a known bug in procmail. IIRC, versions up to 3.21 do this
(you'd have to Google around for details). We even document this issue
in the SA sample procmailrc:
# Work around procmail bug: any output on stderr will cause the "F" in "From"
# to be dropped. This will re-add it.
# NOTE: This is probably NOT needed in recent versions of procmail

BTW, according to the procmail documentation:
w Wait for the filter or program to finish and check its exitcode
(normally ignored); if the filter is unsuccessful, then the text
will not have been filtered.
