Sorry for the late answer.

Sure thing, sa-exim 4.0 has been released about a week ago now and does
include greylisting support.
It is however smarter than all the other implementations I've seen so far,
in that it only greylists posts that have an intermediate score in
SpamAssassin.
Non spam flows right through (even though it does seed the greylist pool so
that if a spammish mail comes from the same place later, its score can be
dropped somewhat due to the tuplet (env from/env to/connect-ip) being
whitelisted.
