The attached crash log and the problem description do not match up.
The crash log is in the DNS resolver, which should have no links to the
getpw* functions, the description describes a problem in the getpw*
functions.

[How are your user databases accessed? In some cases that could link
DNS and user data, but the traceback appears to be showing a straight
host DNS lookup path]

In either case this appears to be an OS library issue and not anything
that exim has control over or can mitigate.

Leaving in NEW state for now, but will close as INVALID unless further
evidence for an exim problem is attached.
