Aha, here's my debug output for file locations (Mac OS 10.3.4):

Aug 30 10:54:01 xserve1 spamd[13769]: debug: using
"/Library/Perl/share/spamassassin" for default rules dir
Aug 30 10:54:01 xserve1 spamd[13769]: debug: using
"/Library/Perl/etc/mail/spamassassin" for site rules dir

So here's the correct command for startup (till I can rebuild with the
correct paths):

/usr/local/bin/spamd -d --pidfile /var/run/spamd.pid -u spamd
--siteconfigpath=/etc/mail/spamassassin
