For those who wish to ignore the warnings at the top of 
/usr/share/spamassassin/72_active.cf and modify it by hand, the official fix
is:
  header FH_DATE_PAST_20XX Date =~ /20[2-9][0-9]/ [if-unset: 2006] 

as seen in the subversion repository:
http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/spamassassin/rules/branches/3.2/72_active.cf?revision=895073&view=markup

Steady movement is more important than speed, much of the time.  So long
as there is a regular progression of stimuli to get your mental hooks
into, there is room for lateral movement.  Once this begins, its rate is
a matter of discretion.
