Good point.  As an alternative, we could identify the
report-triggering results by reference, letting generators declare
their authserv-id.  For example, adding the following line in the
second part of the current example:

   Authentication-Server-Id: mta1011.mail.tp2.someisp.com

This alternative may allow a generator to piecewise write the A-R
fields directly to the relevant stream, rather than building them in
memory.  At the recipient's, this alternative just prevents the
embarrassment of choice; e.g., what if the second part's A-R fields
seem to differ from their third part's correlatives?
