I think the groups should not even have been cached in the first place; lookups for auth purposes usually set op->o_nocaching.
You're right; but the point doesn't seem to be about caching during the authorization-related internal lookup; caching seems to occur earlier, while checking access to the authzTo/authzFrom attrs. There might be some issue in the authz resolution.
The issue seems to occur in slap_sasl_check_authz(), which calls backend_attribute() to gather authzTo/authzFrom complying with access control. The point is: should "no caching" be set here or directly in backend_attribute()? It seems to me that few cases of using backend_attribute() would require caching of access control...
