I think this was because of some missing or wrong setting that I fixed
in 1.0-test but not in 1.0-stable.. Could you get gdb backtrace of this
crash so I can finally fix it? :) The core file should have been written
to /usr/local/var/run/dovecot/core (or wherever your Dovecot's base_dir
is). So:

gdb /usr/local/libexec/dovecot/dovecot-auth /usr/local/var/run/dovecot/core

Your logs didn't show the error though, that's a bit strange. Usually
it's anyway about the given uid or gid being too low (first_valid_uid,
first_valid_gid settings). Those errors should have been written to the
log though.
