I would expect that this error appears in dmesg (by glibc) too, does it?

As the cdb files are binary compatible I suggest to copy the credentials 
file temporarily to the 64bit machine and test it. And perhaps vice 
versa. From the given info I'm pretty sure the auth.cdb is not found 
because your checkpassword tool looks at the wrong location or it is 
even not found itself. Reason could be a wrong pointer (integer) size 
also.

If it is really a 32/64bit issue than you can try to recompile all with 
march=i586 (or so). Other wise you have to debug the code.

Anyway, move on to an actively maintained fork. By using s/qmail or 
eQmail you will be able to update to the upcoming aQmail easily ;-) - 
ok, it's another assumption.
