spamd won't shut down cleanly on FreeBSD

I'm running SpamAssassin 3.0 on FreeBSD 4.8-RELEASE, Alpha architecture. 
spamd does not shut down when I send it a SIGTERM.  I have to kill -9 each
individual child.  I had a similar problem with 2.64.  It works otherwise. 
Any ideas?

I had that issue on i386 with FreeBSD 4-STABLE with Perl 4.8.5, but only 
with the beta versions of SA-3. When I installed the release version of 
SA-3, it worked fine.

This sounds more like a bug in perl's process handling -- most likely 
Alpha specific, since I know the Alpha arch gets less testing than i386.
