I tried a fresh install from ports, works fine here.
Btw, amavisd-new from ports is now at 2.5.1,
although this should not affect your immediate problem.
> 'Spamassassin -lint -D' is fine
Always run 'spamassassin' command as user vscan.
(otherwise it might see other directories or setting and you get
different results, or it may clobber ownerships of some files
like a bayes db)

Yes, this is the main issue here.

If it could not read it, it would report access violation.
More likely it does not know where to look, as if the
default for LOCAL_RULES_DIR were not established during a
'make' phase of the installation.
Go to the ports directory and do a 'make clean' and a 'make' again,
paying attention that the following line scrolls by (wrapped here
for clarity):
/usr/local/bin/perl5.8.8 build/preprocessor
-Mconditional -Mvars
-DVERSION="3.002000" -DPREFIX="/usr/local"
-DDEF_RULES_DIR="/usr/local/share/spamassassin"
-DLOCAL_RULES_DIR="/usr/local/etc/mail/spamassassin"
-DLOCAL_STATE_DIR="/var/db/spamassassin"
<lib/Mail/SpamAssassin.pm >blib/lib/Mail/SpamAssassin.pm
It is essential that the file SpamAssassin.pm receives a proper
default for LOCAL_RULES_DIR.
After a 'make install' you may check if this was indeed the case:
see file /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.8/Mail/SpamAssassin.pm,
somewhere near line 333 there should be:
# if the libs are installed in an alternate location, and the caller
# didn't set PREFIX, we should have an estimated guess ready, values
# substituted at 'make' time
$self->{PREFIX} ||= '/usr/local';
$self->{DEF_RULES_DIR} ||= '/usr/local/share/spamassassin';
$self->{LOCAL_RULES_DIR} ||= '/usr/local/etc/mail/spamassassin';
$self->{LOCAL_STATE_DIR} ||= '/var/db/spamassassin';
Later on in 'sub sed_path' the string __local_rules_dir__ should
be replaced by $self->{LOCAL_RULES_DIR}, which should then be
the directory where 'sub init' in SpamAssassin.pm should look
for *.pre files:
$siterules ||= $self->first_existing_path (@site_rules_path);
