I have a total of 5 non-standard cf files in /etc/mail/spamassassin. All are being read and the rules and modules defined in them are in use. Modules include DecodeShortURLs, MimeMagic, and a locally written one. All the files in /etc/mail/spamassassin are owned by root.root and have at least "-rw-r--r--" permissions. Are you using SElinux? I have it disabled.
