That's probably a question for the spamcopuri author Eric Kolve,
though a partial hedge is that we tend not to think of SURBLs
in quite the same way as other RBLs since the usage is fairly
different.  (Two other uses of RBLs are more common: match
sender IP addresses or domains in message headers or match
resolved URI IP addresses in message bodies.)

Chris' answer is reasonable that the 3.0 code hopefully may
treat SURBLs like other RBLs in that skip_rbl_checks may work
as expected.  Reading the source code would probably reveal
this if so.
