Aha - found it! Sorry to follow-up to myself.

It turned out that I needed "new_director = system_aliases" on the
system_aliases director, not the checkerr director (so that when postmaster
got expanded by system_aliases it didn't start again at checkerr with the
result of the expansion).

D'oh.

Cheers,
Chris.
