wouldn't like to comment on the changes, I just see people see get positive results from it (ie lowest memory usage).
I don't use spamd to invoke spamassassin myself so haven't suffered from the problem. (I use MailScanner)

There's a bugilla reference to this and a patch for the patch there as well

That patch is about a change in how the spamd processes are used, right? Instead of using all --max-children (as Linux decides) to using a smaller pool of them and trying to use ones that are not swapped to disk.
Maybe I was not letting SA run long enough, but in my case it seems like only one spamd process is growing large (see my other posts for ps output). Most were 100K but 1 was almost 5 times larger.
