Something along the lines of: "Non-deterministic signing may result in unique signatures. Although this use is RFC non-compliant, tool performing such operations may produce many different signatures for the same key and message. Verification tools have no way to know if the messages have been created in such a way, and thus will validate and verify. Verification tools are not given enough information to force an error on non-compliant constructions that use non-deterministic generation."
Here's an example "abusing" R, i.e. a signature that is not RFC compliant but there is no way to tell at the time of verification:
