There was a change to how configure detects if kqueue is supported (made 
sometime after the 10th (I suspect the change on the 16th, but haven't 
looked too closely) which prevents it from being detected on NetBSD. 
Forcing kqueue to be used for file change and i/o loop by hacking up the 
configure script allows it to be used.

It also works correctly, save for the messages:

Jun 21 17:22:13 intrepid dovecot: auth(default): kevent(10) in 
io_loop_handle_remove failed: Bad file descriptor
Jun 21 17:22:13 intrepid dovecot: auth(default): kevent(12) in 
io_loop_handle_remove failed: Bad file descriptor
Jun 21 17:22:13 intrepid dovecot: auth(default): kevent(11) in 
io_loop_handle_remove failed: Bad file descriptor

This doesn't appear to cause any bad side effects though, as logging in 
and mail notification both work just fine.
