Sorry, I strongly disagree with you.
The point is: you cannot "rebuild the binaries" (actually in this case it is
the collection of spam-fighting-rules) afterwards the easy way because the
compile command refuses to run anymore!
First you have to remove the old binaries manually, then you can rebuild them.
And this procedure is not written in any book, at least in none that I have
read (what, of course, is not real argument, I know :-) )
My main reason of reporting this here was that others can read it and take
countermeasures when they run into it.
Last week I have updated another FBSD Box and it happened again, but I have
remembered the problem and could fix it fast.

Of course, this remove/recreate feature would belong into the makefile of
mimedefang/spamassassin (for me it looks like ONE port, you cant have one
without the other)
