You're right, at his point in time it doesn't.

Yes, it does at this time.

I don't use RulesDuJour, but I thought you could place SARE rules in a
subdirectory.

If using sa-update to download SARE rules, it follows along to the
newest directory, but it is a problem when running chrooted as I
would image you would have to script something like this:
#!/bin/bash
sa-update
code1=$?
sa-update --channelfile /root/sare-sa-update-channels.tx --gpgkey 856AA88A
code2=$?
if [[ `expr $code1 + $code2` < 2 ]]; then
spamassassin --lint
code3=$?
if [ $code3 = 0 ]; then
rm -rf /var/amavisd/var/lib/spamassassin
cp -rp /var/lib/spamassassin /var/amavisd/var/lib/spamassassin
/etc/init.d/amavis restart
else
echo "spamassassin failed to lint"
fi
fi
