why do you think that?  DKIM doesn't care about ordering, except when
the same header field name is used several times.  your X-Spam headers
should use a site specific name, e.g., X-CSY-Spam, to make this less
likely to happen.  (you will also fail verification if someone has
signed the same header field you add, another reason to use a "unique"
header field name.)

I would say "no", since "X-Spam" isn't a standardised trace field.
ideally I think you should remove your spam headers when passing the
message on, it is seldom useful to others and only contribute to
bloating up the header.
