Finally, it is there.
It compiled cleanly, and my mail server didn't catch fire after running it
for 8 hours, so it must be bug free [tm]
As usual, it's here:

Note that it now comes in a tarball, which you can also browse here:
http://marc.merlins.org/linux/exim/files/sa-exim-current/
You will want to make sure to get the new spamassassin.conf and look at the
added options.
Changelog from 2.0b1 is:
* Allow for stalling SMTP sessions from spammers (caution)
* Support X-Spam-Status from SA pre 2.30
* Build patches from Norm
* Documented that spamd shouldn't be run with -c
* dman's patch to allow for this to be a shared library
* dman's indirect request for saved files to be 660
Note that you will need this version to run the more recent SpamAssassin code,
they changed the format of X-Spam-Status.
Feel free to play with SAstallsender (at your own risk), and if you can find
an easy way to stop stalling and sitting around if the other side
disconnected, I'm all ears :-)
Note too that SA 2.30 pre currently outputs *very long* headers in some
cases, and it goes beyond SA's 8KB limit for string_sprintf.
So you'll want to change STRING_SPRINTF_BUFFER_SIZE in
exim/src/config.h.defaults
