You should have always seen those two actually (plus X-Spam-Report if
always_add_report is set to 1 in your local.cf). It could be that
RedHat and Debian install SpamAssasin with different defaults.

-m only applies to body, Content-Type and Subject. Spamass-milter
will always update X-Spam-Flag, X-Spam-Status, X-Spam-Report,
X-Spam-Level, and X-Spam-Checker-Version if spamassassin adds them.

Adding "always_add_headers 0" to your spamassassin config will tell it
not to add X-Spam-Status, X-Spam-Checker-Version, or X-Spam-Level to
non-spam. All the headers will still be added to spam, though.
I guess I could also add a '-M' flag to spamass-milter that says "never
modify the message at all", which would have to be used in conjunction
with the -r, -b or -B options to be of any use. Is that what you're
looking for?

Razor does not look at headers, so that can't be the problem here..
