I don't see the bug.  The first step changes the address but retains the
routable flavor.  The new address and existing flavor still meet the
criteria specified for the second step.  Using
 in Step1 prevents it from being a candidate
for being routed to 140/1 in Step2.  You could add Step3:

CHANGE  NORMAL 1:234/567.8

to end up with NORMAL again if that's your objective.  Instead, you could
also use some address with a fictional zone that is not in Step2's
criteria, for Step1 and Step3.

How would you want to change Squish's current behavior to "fix"
it?  Prevent more than one routing command from ever being applied to the
same mail in the same run?
