Re: MA , RP , PLACEMENTS ON FRAME-RELAY

That is correct, however, it doesn't mean the solution doesn't exist.
It may not be straight-forward, but it exists.

Cisco has a document that explains this problem:

However, if the CCIE lab requires you to put MA behind a spoke, there
is a solution - tunneling :-)
