authpwd is used by very few people, so it gets little care and attention. Most people authenticating against the system password database use authpam, and most of the rest use authshadow. Non-shadow Unix systems are something of an antiquity :-)
Unfortunately, shadow passwords aren't an option for this installation, and I was having even worse problems with trying to get authpam working. In comparison, a little mismatched crypt()ing seemed preferable. ;)
I think you will get the symptoms you see if HAVE_CRYPT is not defined. In that case, when you configure courier-authlib you need to find out why the crypt() function is not being detected, and fix it so that it is. Possibly you need to give some extra linker flags.
Yep; adding -DHAVE_CRYPT manually to the makefile made things work. This probably should be, as you noted, automatically detected by the configure script. Oh well.
