Your message was discarded by mailman, probably because it was
html-only. Anyway:

OK, so "auth_request->userdb->userdb->iface->lookup" should call
vpopmail_lookup(), it's not NULL as this says:

So something's going strangely wrong. Maybe gcc optimizations cause this
and the real problem happens later. Try compiling auth process with
optimizations:

 - Remove -O2 from src/auth/Makefile
 - cd src/auth ; make clean ; make ; make install

Is the backtrace different?
