Interesting.  I have been having similar problems since upgrading to
2.61...  I'm using qmail and FreeBSD, but I'm calling procmail with a
recipe similar to yours, except that I'm running spamd on one central
server which services a couple heavily-used mail servers.

The machine running spamd catches ~100k spam messages per day for over
700 users:

# gzcat /var/log/maillog.0.gz | grep "Dec 27" | grep "identified spam" | wc -l
  104004

And about ~8k clean messages per day for those same users:

# gzcat /var/log/maillog.0.gz | grep "Dec 27" | grep "clean message" | wc -l
    7848

Since upgrading, I've noticed that I am now getting some spam messages
in my INBOX that have no spamassassin headers.

I get about 1300 spams a day, and I'm seeing maybe 10 messages per day
that have no spamassassin headers whatsoever, so the percentage is
rather small here as well (about 1%...)

I'm still debugging to see what I can find out...  Did you try turning
on spamd's debugging flag to see if anything else shows up in the
logs?  (Unfortunately, turning that on on my server results in
terrible performance degradation, as there are an average of 29 spamd
processes running on average at any given point in time...)
