Does this mean it'd be a good idea to initialize SpamAssassin at the
first use, rather than in filter_initialize()?

It seems like if a bunch of slaves are going to end up processing only
filter_sender or filter_relay, then initializing SpamAssassin in
filter_initialize() is a waste of memory (given previously mentioned
facts about reference counting, Perl, and copy-on-write).
