Argggh. Never mind - it's actually Solaris' "vacation" program
core dumping when it tries to do a dbm_store()/additem() into
the .vacation.{dir,pag} files when it runs. No idea why this is
happening, of course. *Sigh* Sorry for all the noise ...

So I guess the only interesting question from Courier's
standpoint is, when a pipeline in a ".forward" fails,
shouldn't that status make it back up the line somehow,
so that Courier can at least log the pipeline failure
somehow? Or is a ".forward" pipeline considered a hand-off
to local delivery equivalent, and not Courier's problem ...
