I don't know why japanese/spamassassin was made into a separate port to 
begin with, it's been that way since I took over maintainership over 
mail/spamassassin.

Looking at SVN history it seems like japanese/spamassassin was created 
because the patch was for an older version of spamassassin originally, 
so two different versions were needed.
