That depends. Several people have written software to calculate the Ratings
Percentage index. The version I wrote uses the scorefile from maine
directly. Since that scorefile lists the game as a 3-2 win, my
version of the software treats it as such. I've posted this to the
list instead of replying directly because there are at least 3 other
versions of the RPICH program floating around, and I'm curious about
how the others handle this event.
