I looked very quickly at the code:
- spamass-milter doesn't look like perl
- spamassassin uses IO::Socket::SSL if the --ssl option is used
  (and I've seen nothing weird in the parts where it's used so far)
 
Ha, I can reproduce it:

- chroot, remove policy-rc.d
- install spamassassin
- in /etc/default/spamassassin: enable, and add --ssl to the options
- start:

# /etc/init.d/spamassassin start

libio-socket-inet6-perl is recommended by spamassassin, so let's add it.

# /etc/init.d/spamassassin start

Let's try something else; spamd is right that there are no
server-key/cert.pem files; let's create some ...

*some minutes later*

# ls -l /etc/spamassassin/certs/
total 8
-rw------- 1 root root 875 Aug 17 22:39 server-cert.pem
-rw------- 1 root root 963 Aug 17 22:39 server-key.pem

so far so good

Eh voilà. The errors are just misleading ...
