Does it bounce immediately? 75 is by default treated as a temporary
error, and should cause a defer.

There is an option of the pipe transport called temp_errors which
defines which errors are to be considered temporary. Its default
normally includes 75. It requires ignore_status to be false, but that is
also the default, and you mention neither in your transport:

So it should be treating 75 as a temporary error, and deferring. We need
to see debugging output to see why it is not...

There is no mention of cyrus either, so I suspect this debugging info
isn't for the right message. The message handled in that debug output
goes to the amavis transport, not to the local_delivery_cyrus transport.
