Now I'm confused.  I see -03 as that latest and it says:

     authres-header = "Authentication-Results:" [CFWS] authserv-id
              [ [CFWS] authres-version ]
              ( [CFWS] ";" [CFWS] "none" / 1*resinfo ) [CFWS] CRLF
            ; the special case of "none" is used to indicate that no
            ; message authentication is performed
