DESCRIPTION
       sa-compile uses "re2c" to compile the site-wide parts of the
       SpamAssassin ruleset. No part of user_prefs or any files included from
       user_prefs can be built into the compiled set.
       This compiled set is then used by the
       "Mail::SpamAssassin::Plugin::Rule2XSBody" plugin to speed up
       SpamAssassin's operation, where possible, and when that plugin is
       loaded.
       "re2c" can match strings much faster than perl code, by constructing a
       DFA to match many simple strings in parallel, and compiling that to
       native object code.  Not all SpamAssassin rules are amenable to this
       conversion, however.
       This requires "re2c" (see "http://re2c.org/"), and the C compiler used
       to build Perl XS modules, be installed.
       Note that running this, and creating a compiled ruleset, will have no
       effect on SpamAssassin scanning speeds unless you also edit your
       "v320.pre" file and ensure this line is uncommented:
         loadplugin Mail::SpamAssassin::Plugin::Rule2XSBody
       Additionally, "sa-compile" will not restart "spamd" or otherwise cause
       a scanner to reload the now-compiled ruleset automatically.
OPTIONS
       --list
           Output the extracted base strings to STDOUT, instead of generating
           the C extension code.
       --sudo
           Use sudo(8) to run code as 'root' when writing files to the
           compiled-rules storage area (which is
           "/var/lib/spamassassin/compiled/5.016/3.004000" by default).
       --quiet
           Produce less diagnostic output.  Errors will still be displayed.
       --keep-tmps
           Keep temporary files after the script completes, instead of
           deleting them.
       -C path, --configpath=path, --config-file=path
           Use the specified path for locating the distributed configuration
           files.  Ignore the default directories (usually
           "/usr/share/spamassassin" or similar).
       --siteconfigpath=path
           Use the specified path for locating site-specific configuration
           files.  Ignore the default directories (usually
           "/etc/mail/spamassassin" or similar).
       --updatedir
           By default, "sa-compile" will use the system-wide rules update
           directory:
                   /var/lib/spamassassin/compiled/5.016/3.004000
           If the updates should be stored in another location, specify it
           here.
           Note that use of this option is not recommended; if sa-compile is
           placing the compiled rules the wrong directory, you probably need
           to rebuild SpamAssassin with different "Makefile.PL" arguments,
           instead of overriding sa-compile's runtime behaviour.
       --cf='config line'
           Add additional lines of configuration directly from the command-
           line, parsed after the configuration files are read.   Multiple
           --cf arguments can be used, and each will be considered a separate
           line of configuration.
       -p prefs, --prefspath=prefs, --prefs-file=prefs
           Read user score preferences from prefs (usually
           "$HOME/.spamassassin/user_prefs") .
       -D [area,...], --debug [area,...]
           Produce debugging output.  If no areas are listed, all debugging
           information is printed.  Diagnostic output can also be enabled for
           each area individually; area is the area of the code to instrument.
           For more information about which areas (also known as channels) are
           available, please see the documentation at
           <http://wiki.apache.org/spamassassin/DebugChannels>;.
       -h, --help
           Print help message and exit.
       -V, --version
           Print sa-compile version and exit.
