spamc/spamd does not use UNIX sockets. We experimented briefly with a patch to CVS a few days ago which had UNIX sockets enabled as an option, but there were problem so it's backed out for now and won't be in 2.2 -- since there is a "nscd" in the socket name, I expect that your upgrade changed your /etc/resolv.conf or somehow altered the way name resolution on you machine works. Try "host localhost" on the command line and see what happens. nscd by the way is the caching nameserver that RH uses I think. Sounds to me like a hostname resolution problem.
