It is not spamassassin setting the lock file. it is procmail Any procmail recipe that starts with :0 will not create a lock file. You do not need a lock file when piping your mails through spamassassin. The lock file is there simply to stop procmail and kmail trying to use a mail spool file at the same time. You only need to set it when actually writing to a mail spool file. A procmail recipe starting with :0 : will use the default lockfile. The default lockfile name will be the same as the mail folder used with a leading '.' A procmail recipe in the form :0 : lockfilename will use the named lock file.
