Ruleset-from-function Custom Function Broken??

[Rose, Bobby]

I've tried that with the same result.  It's reading in that ruleset
based on what I've debugged.  I think what is occurring is that when
ruleset-from-function creates that temp mailscanner.conf and reads in
that single keyword and processes it, all the other config values resort
to the defaults of ConfigDefs.  If I disable strict refs in the
/bin/MailScanner file and uncommment 
print STDERR "Queues are \"" . join('","', at inqdirs) . "\"\n";
Then if I start I get 

In Debugging mode, not forking...

/opt/MailScanner/etc/rules/virus.scanning.rules and type is yesno
SpamAssassin temp dir =

Queues are ""

And in the log

But in my mailscanner.conf file, SA auto-whitelist is no and the virus
scanners isn't sent to auto.  If I drop something into the mqueue.in,
nothing happens...the mailscanner process doesn't see it since I'm
guessing it no longer has it's queue defined.

What happens if you don't use "%rules-dir%" but give the real directory
name there instead?
