From the manual (https://docs.blender.org/manual/en/latest/modeling/meshes/tools/spin.html) it seems as though the tool only supports the 3d cursor as the pivot. So this is intended behavior. I will mark this as a to-do.

Closing, since this is working as intended. Simply using the pivot isn't very usable. Unlike the rotation pivot - you practically never want this to be the axis thats rotated around.

We could make this optionally use the pivot, but I don't think this is high priority.

@ideasman42 using median center or active element might be useful. Of course it can be replaced with cursor.
But pivot selection is confusing in this case because it changes nothing.
OFC no hurry, it works like it works
