>Description:
The SpamAssassin port does not work on 4.5R with the system perl installation
because of an older File::Spec-module.

>How-To-Repeat:
On 4.5R, install SpamAssassin, invoke 'spamassassin' in .procmailrc:

Can't locate object method "splitpath" via package "File::Spec" at /usr/local/bin/spamassassin line 17.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at /usr/local/bin/spamassassin line 37.
procmail: Program failure (2) of "spamassassin"
procmail: Rescue of unfiltered data succeeded

>Fix:
A workaround for the older 5.005_03
which is shipped with 4.5 RELEASE would be fine, or at least a warning in
the ports Makefile.

There is a separate port for File::Spec (installed on machine), but
nobody told /usr/bin/perl to look for libraries in different places.
