As mentioned, why are they running spamc/spamd? Suse ships with amavis,
so I have to wonder, did they also switch the setup from amavisd to
spamd when they upgraded spamassassin?

I'm running spamassassin-3.2.3-4 on several SuSE 10.x , SLES 9 and SLES
10 systems here, and it's all been working perfectly - but rather than
recklessly trash the sa rpms with a manual cpan upgrade, I always
download the source rpms from suse factory and build them on my target
platform.

You might want to have a word with the perpetrators about change control -
