I am looking at a repetition of any and all punctuation, and other
non-alphanumeric characters.  I find that there is a larger percentage of
punctuation in spam subject lines than in regular ones.

Also, wouldn't yours kill anyone using the properly converted high bit
ascii?

For example, "Subject: =?iso-8859-1?B?4NzBIFRlc3Q=?=" is "Subject: ���
Test"

Then again, mine might need some work to avoid those issues too.
