Very nice!  Unfortunately, no, I'm doing no coding on mainstream
bogofilter right now, because all my spare time is going into
investigating yet another promising algorithm.  My 0.8.0-derived
production version reports 1 0 or ? followed by spamicity (%7.2e), or
1-spamicity if spam; this goes to stderr if -v is used, and into the
log output if -l is used; it's the only output for just one -v.  If -p
is used the traditional "X-Bog" header is written.  My current cutoffs
for ? are 0.1 <= spamicity < 0.96; this is with Robinson-Fisher, which
is all I use now in production.
