Right. The validation process is entirely different. For DKIM1, you look at each signature separately and return a pass/fail result for each one, with no relation among multiple signatures. For DKIM2 you look at all the signatures as a chain and return one result, either the chain is valid or it isn't, perhaps with some annotations about how the message changed along the way. You could scavenge some code for things like the key parsing and the body hash that haven't changed, but the overall work to be done is quite different.
