I'm fairly certain I've found the problem (and, indeed, it looks
like I introduced it too while changing how falloc works). You loose
a reference to /dev/null every time you exec a suid program with
at least one of std{in,out,err} closed. I'm guessing that some part
of postfix does this.

I believe the patch below will fix the problem. I guess I'm too
late for you to test it now?
