Hello eggy,
I've done a bit more testing, I built this code on my Linux desktop
and this version of binkd works (I got a password error, which I
expected to get). Whatever this particular issue is, seems specific to
the raspberry pi (raspbian).
I've encountered that error before but I forget now what the problem or solution was. I'll import my binkd.conf below for you to compare if you like. I'll remove most of my node lines. Not sure if it'll help or not..

# Define shared aka

# node [[z:]n/]n[.p][@domain] [-nr|-nd] [-md] [-hc|-nohc] [-ip|-sip] [-bw
<send_rate>[/<recv_rate>]] [-4|-6] [{hosts|-} [{<inpwd>[,[<pktpwd>][,<outpwd>]]|-} [flavour [{obox|-} [{ibox|-}]]]]]
#
# * All non-"-" fields will redefine the values specified for the same node
# earlier in config.
# * The meaning of <inpwd>, <pktpwd> and <outpwd> is the same as in
# the description of the "passwords" token. Any password is one word
# without spaces or tabs. If <pktpwd> or <outpwd> is omitted, it is
# assumed equal to <inpwd>.
# * Flavour is one of i, c, d, -, h; and is the flavour for the outbound
# filebox ("obox").
# * Binkd sends from obox all non-dir entries NOT matching ".*" wildcard.
# EVERY TIME YOU PUT A FILE INTO OBOX CHECK IF BINKD WILL BE ABLE TO
# UNLINK IT. Otherwise, the session will never end.
# * Default for ibox is inbound or inbound-nosecure depending on the pwd field. # * Default for port is oport.
# * `-nr' stands for `Not Reliable Link', this works only on outbound calls
# with another binkp/1.1 mailer. The option solves the only problem with
# binkd having no enough time to start receiving of a file from
# non-zero offset before IP link's down, so don't use it unless you
# have this problem -- really not effective
# * `-nd' means "No Dupe Mode", this works only on outbound calls with
# another binkd 0.9.3 or higher. The option solves problem with
# duplicating files while losts carrier but link is a bit slower
# then with "-nr" option
# * `-md' means "Must have CRAM-MD5". This works only with nodes with
# binkd or argus supported this method. Do not set it if your link
# can use the old version of binkd.
# * `-nomd' - do not use CRAM-MD5 for this node (send plain text password)
# * `-hc' enables check of sender address in pkt header for this node/aka
# (overrides the setting of the 'check-pkthdr' statement)
# * `-nohc' disables check of sender address in pkt header for this node/aka
# (overrides the setting of the 'check-pkthdr' statement)
# * `-ip' means "Remote IP check". In this case the node will be
# rejected, if it comes not from one of its IP-addresses.
# Remote AKAs with bad IP-address will be dropped on outgoing calls.
# * `-sip' means "Strict remote IP check". Like "-ip", but node will be
# rejected, if no IP-addresses allowed ("-" or not resolved).
# Remote AKAs with bad IP-address will be dropped on outgoing calls.
# * `-bw' specifies bandwidth (rate) limit for this node
# if one value is specified, it's used as both send and recv limit
# if two values are specified,d
