I'm running FSBD 4.9 SECURITY, and I just upgraded the postfix port. I ran into the pipe problem, googled, found your and Weitse's posts about gnugetopt and uninstalled it. Then I reinstalled postfix, but the problem persisted. (The server could receive and send mail, but it couldn't deliver locally because pipe was screwed up.) I finally uninstalled postfix and reinstalled *without* selecting the SPF option, and the server worked fine. I then *reinstalled* libgnugetopt, *uninstalled* postfix and reinstalled it, and it still worked fine. I then did the same thing again, but this time I selected SPF, and the problem reappeared. I did it one more time, this time did *not* select SPF, and the problem was gone. So the problem appears to be in SPF, not in the presence of gnugetopt. At least in my case. If you want me to do some testing, I can.
