IMO, assuming SA has read local.cf or the equivalent (which I assume to be
the case even when run as "spamassassin --lint"), SA should remember if
allow_user_rules exists in that file, even if it overrides the value for
current processing.
If sa then discovers
if (lint && !had_allow_user_rules && user_rule_file_exists) warn "This
ain't gonna work..";
Or something along those lines.
