I believe this is because your code still prefers to use
gnus-original-article-buffer, which is not updated when spooling new
mail.  View a spam before you spool in some new mail from your mailbox,
and I think you will find all your new mail is considered spam.  
(Note: Bt and Br do not count as spooling in new mail - Send yourself
some test mails instead).

There are a few possible workarounds:
1. Kill gnus-original-article-buffer from gnus-get-new-news-hook
2. Check for nnmail-article-buffer before gnus-original-article-buffer
in your code.
3. Use the defadvice posted by Jeremy H. Brown in
< news:uv6r8g9n5id.fsf@suspiria.ai.mit.edu > and change
spam-stat-split-fancy to look in the-article-buffer.
(This last one is what I use).

spam-stat.el is now my only spam filter.  It Just Works. :)
