More testing seems to indicate that the Makefile is broken.

Running make followed by semodule to load the new module generates the error.  If, however, I manually run the following commands everything works fine, the module is loaded, and 
selinux no longer blocks the desired action:

audit2allow -m spamass-milter < /var/log/audit/audit.log > spamass-milter.te
checkmodule -M -m -o spamass-milter.mod spamass-milter.te
semodule_package -o spamass-milter.pp -m spamass-milter.mod
semodule -i spamass-milter.pp
