Probably this bug, which is fixed in the current snapshot (and will be
in the next release):

20. If the log selector return_path_on_delivery was set and an address was 
    redirected to /dev/null, the delivery process crashed because it assumed 
    that a return path would always be set for a "successful" delivery. In this 
    case, the whole delivery is bypassed as an optimization, and therefore no 
    return path is set.
