Unfortunately this is not the solution.
/run/spamd.pid exists and contains the same pid as /var/run/spamd.pid.

It is created when starting the spamd service.

What do you exactly mean by "removing the option in the startup unit"?
I'm not running spamd via a socket.

I commented out "PIDFILE="/var/run/spamd.pid" in default/spamassassin.
Test still results in timeout.

PLEASE IGNORE THE TROLL.

Harald Reindl has been banned from this mailing list for years due to
abusive behavior, but since it is a public list we can't stop him from
mailing participants directly, as he has with you.

Nothing you do to the operational system configuration that handles
running spamd should have any effect on how the build-time tests work.
The tests are supposed to be fully isolated from the installed instance
of SA, if there is an installed instance of SA.

You cannot expect the build-time tests to succeed if you run them as
root OR on a machine already running spamd. If this is not clear from
reading the test documentation in the source distribution, please think
about how we can make it clearer and make a suggestion...

CPAN will put stuff in the /usr/local/bin folder.  Compare
/usr/sbin/spamd -V to /usr/local/bin/spamd -V

Also, check the values in /etc/init.d/spamassassin
