I have now removed it from the main mail path, but am still sending spam 
and ham retraining requests to it. It has now stayed up for a whole day.

I followed your quest round the internet looking for a replacement. In 
this process I did discover someone who was experiencing silent exits of 
dspam.
The current dspam maintainer was saying that the hash driver could get 
into trouble because it copies a file into memory and if this got 
corrupt then it would cause dspam to crash.

I am wondering if I can find that file and remove it.  Just don't know 
where to look
