The issue was raised on this list on 1/7/2008 with a subject of "Apache
SpamAssassin 3.2.4", but there' weren't any responses.  I began seeing this
error immediately after upgrading SA to 3.2.4.  I'm currently running MD 2.63,
but early reports don't seem to show that 2.64 fixed the problem.

It was also discussed briefly on the SA list but, as far as I could tell, only
MD users were affected.
