Actually I'm lost what the server folks here (Richard, Russ,
Forrest) really want.  Richard said what he sees in practice 
is the diag.MISMATCH-style, that's Charles's second variant
(with a similar diag.SEEN).

OTOH he said that this has no effect, and a log file makes
more sense.  For a real effect it has to be source!MISMATCH
(or similar source!SEEN) with source = path-id instead of
diag = IP (or path-id).

That's quite different,  Supporting both concepts at the
same time is something I don't understand, but I hope that
somebody will explain where that's still better than say

         path = "Path:" SP *( VCHAR ) CRLF
