Mmmh, does spamc (if you run it by hand against the EMail) really output
req
uired=x.x

SA-Exim gets very confused if it gets an X-Spam-Status line truncated in the
middle like that...

For reference, it's supposed to look like this:
X-Spam-Status: No, hits=-98.1 required=7.0                                      
        tests=FROM_AND_TO_SAME_1,NO_REAL_NAME,SPAM_PHRASE_03_05,                
              USER_IN_WHITELIST                                                 
        version=2.41 

BTW, which version of SA are you using?
