When this issue was first brought to my attention, I made the following
changes in the port:
grep -i local *
Makefile: @${MV} ${WRKSRC}/rules/local.cf ${WRKSRC}/rules/local.cf.sample
Makefile: @${SED} -e 's#local.cf#local.cf.sample#g' \
pkg-plist:etc/mail/spamassassin/local.cf.sample
I also tested the thing extensively with a dummy local.cf file locally,
and it didn't touch it.

Well you're undoubtedly correct about that, but since I'm fairly sure
it's not the port, I'm not sure what I'd be fixing. If you can identify
what's happening and why, I'll be glad to take another look.
