I think Frank was in a hurry, and meant to use A: instead of include:
(Unless I'm missing something.) Here is the revised zonedata:

zonedata:
  outer-space.test:
    - SPF: "v=spf1 a:inner%_space.test -all"
  "inner space.test":
    - A: 1.2.3.4
  outer-space.xn--zckzah:
    - SPF: "v=spf1 a:inner%%space.xn--zckzah -all"
  inner%space.xn--zckzah:
    - A: 1.2.3.4
    - SPF: "v=spf1 a:inner%-space.xn--zckzah -all"
  "inner%20space.xn--zckzah":
    - A: 1.2.3.5
