In article <230d0260-c254-99d3-0995-1ab05c326949@arcsin.de> you write:
>Shall authserv-id contain UTF8-non-ascii or not?

The intention in 8601 is pretty clear, even though the ABNF doesn't agree:

2.5.  Authentication Service Identifier Field

   Every Authentication-Results header field has an authentication
   service identifier field (authserv-id above).  Specifically, this is
   any string intended to identify the authentication service within the
   ADMD that conducted authentication checks on the message.  This
   identifier is intended to be machine-readable and not necessarily
   meaningful to users.

   Note that in an EAI-formatted message, this identifier may be
   expressed in UTF-8.
