[Bug 774852] [NEW] Postfix 'local' crashes

[Albrecht Dreß]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: postfix

Ubuntu version: Ubuntu 11.04
Package version:  postfix 2.8.2-1ubuntu1
System: PowerMac G4 "Silver"

After an update of my box from 10.10 to 11.04, the 'local' delivery
agent of Postfix stopped working.  I added verbose debugging for it in
/etc/postfix/master.cf, and get the following results in
/var/log/mail.log:
