In MS-APDS 3.2.5.2 Processing a KERB_VERIFY_PAC_REQUEST Message
You really need to say:

The server MUST verify the signature over the server checksum
([MS-PAC]section 2.8.2) and compare the result against the KDC checksum
passed in the request.

As you should not say 'signature' without indicating what it is over,
and 2.8.2 is a better reference.
