	Do you have syslog running on this machine?  I'm _guessing_ that 
perhaps /dev/log might not exist at all, or that the user under which 
you're running spamassassin may not have permission to write to it.  It 
might also be that spamd's trying to bind to port 873 and you're starting 
it up as a non-root user (and non-root users can't bind to ports below 
1024).
	Sorry these are guesses.
	Cheers,
	- Bill
