I'll hop over there and ask again, thanks...

I forget where I downloaded it, most likely rpmfind or freshrpms or some
such.

That is indeed the call from postfix to saslauthd, but it is submittingthe
correct information and saslauthd responds negatively where it should
respond positively.  Myu troubleshooting up to this point has been working
at verifying connectivity between postfix's smtpd process (and it's
children) and the saslauthd socket.  That is, as shown by the above, not the
problem.
