Check out jcheck.py code http://hg.openjdk.java.net/code-tools/jcheck/dist/raw-file/tip/jcheck.py

con_check = re.compile("Contributed-by: ((" + addr_pat + ")(, (" + addr_pat + "))*)$")

jcheck can take multiple contributors (N >= 1) as long as you comply with the format.

It's a good thing to have a format including spacing requirement. But the code probably should provide a more useful error message to correct its users.

Yes, no more than one leading space needed, also, the space between ',' and following email address is a must too. Very confusing. jcheck should ignore extra spaces.

may be it can't parse two email addresses. Probably expecting a single email
address in contributed by line?
It can handle multiple addresses.  Try removing the extra space before
the first address, i.e., make it:

Contributed-by: [email protected], [email protected]

rather than:

Contributed-by:  [email protected], [email protected]
