Looks like your /var/lib and /var/spool are not on the same partition.
You can't create hard links when files are on different partitions, and
a soft link won't work because postfix is running chrooted.

What you could do is 
mount --bind /var/lib/sasl2 /var/spool/postfix/var/lib/sasl2

And remove the "ln" line in /etc/init.d/saslauthd

You'll have of course to modify your fstab so it mounts the partition at
every boot.
