Huh?  SA's Bayes DB has nothing to do with how SA calls Razor.  it's a 
completely separate test.  Neither the score Razor assigns a message nor 
the score SpamAssassin assigns to the Razor hit is going to be affected 
by the contents of SpamAssassin's Bayes database.

Now, both the Razor score and the Bayes score will affect the *final* 
SpamAssassin score -- possibly enough to push it over the threshold -- 
but that's another issue entirely.
