On the same line...here is my output and having maybe a similar problem
that I can't figure out:

SNIP, NOTICE THAT THERE SEEMS TO BE 2 BAYES

Also a ls -la returns this in my /var/spool/spamassassin directory:
[root at MailScanner spamassassin]# ls -la
total 1104
drwxr-xr-x    2 root     root         4096 May 17 17:42 .
drwxr-xr-x   19 root     root         4096 May 13 20:05 ..
-rw-------    1 root     root        53248 May 17 17:42 bayes_seen
-rw-------    1 root     root      1323008 May 17 17:42 bayes_toks

AND THIS IN THE /ROOT/.SPAMASSASSIN DIRECTORY
[root at MailScanner .spamassassin]# ls -la
total 28
drwx------    2 root     root         4096 May 14 13:54 .
drwxr-x---   26 root     root         4096 May 17 17:45 ..
-rw-------    1 root     root        12288 May 14 13:54 bayes_seen
-rw-------    1 root     root        12288 May 14 13:54 bayes_toks
-rw-r--r--    1 root     root         1165 Apr  6 10:58 user_prefs

NOTE: LOOKS LIKE THE /VAR/SPOOL/SPAMASSASSIN DIR IS WORKING IN SOME FORM
BY LOOKING AT THE DATE

Try spamassassin --lint -D. The debug output will tell you if somethings
wrong with your bayes DB.

This is some relevant fragments from a working copy

debug: bayes: 2653 tie-ing to DB file R/O /root/.spamassassin/bayes_toks
debug: bayes: 2653 tie-ing to DB file R/O /root/.spamassassin/bayes_seen
