These headers are added by exim because the message (as it re-enters
exim) has no headers at all. exim adds the headers to make the
message (minimally) complete.

mbox From_ line (leading with escape character added by exim
afterwards). This From_ line was added by SA and is what causes the
entire problem -- it isn't the start of the message so exim sees the
whole thing as being the body of the message.

Actual message (headers and all).

Indeed.
| where'd i go wrong?
You're using an older version of spamassassin (the one in woody?)
which defaults to preparing the message to be cat-ted to an mbox
folder. (originally SA wanted to do the delivery itself to a single
mbox folder) It was a very bad feature and has since been removed.
To disable it:
--- cut ---
Edit /etc/default/spamassassin to start 'spamd' at boot time and to
<i>not</i> create user preferences files automatically and <i>not</i>
add a "From " header at the top of the messages. The "From " header
will really break your mail because the "From " header is only for mbox
mailboxes.

Put "-F 0" on spamd's command line.
