[gentoo-user] Spamassassin / fcron / RulesDuJour

[Steve [Gentoo]]

Last night my default gentoo RulesDuJour for Spamassassin acquired new
Adult and General rule-sets from SARE.  Thereafter spamd refused all
connections and subsequently received mail was not spam filtered. 
Issuing '/etc/init.d/spamd restart' as root resolved the situation...
but I don't want to have to do this every time a rule-set is
automatically updated overnight.

This is a (sanitised) extract from /var/log/messages :

Does anyone else have this problem?  Can it be attributed to Fcron or
RulesDuJour or something peculiar to my setup?
I don't understand the "process already running" messages from fcron -
my cron jobs all seem to be executed normally.
