  LOCAL_STATE_DIR => '/var/lib',

Option needs to be added in a call to Mail::SpamAssassin->new,
otherwise the spamassassin directory created by sa-update in /var/lib
would never be seen by SA, so only rules in /usr/local/share/spamassassin
would be used.

This omission of providing an adequate default for LOCAL_STATE_DIR
was fixed with SA 3.1.5.  If amavisd 2.4.2 or older is used
with SA 3.1.4 or older (and using sa-update is desired), the 
LOCAL_STATE_DIR=>'/var/lib' line must be inserted in amavisd's
call to Mail::SpamAssassin->new.

Almost, but not quite.
