Other packages that have these types of optional dependencies use a 
MESSAGE file that notes that "these other packages, if installed, 
provided extra functionality".  I would recommend adding such a MESSAGE 
file to the spamassassin package.  Using PKG_OPTIONS to turn on/off 
these types of dependencies is just too heavy IMO, so I think the best 
thing we can do for now is to inform the admin/user.
