This looks correct.

But this looks broken unfortunately. Usually it happens if the core file
wasn't created by the exact same binary you gave to gdb.

One way to be sure would be to attach gdb to dovecot-auth while it's
still running:

gdb /usr/local/libexec/dovecot/dovecot-auth <pid of dovecot-auth>
continue
<wait for crash>
bt full

Also your dovecot-auth doesn't contain debugging information. It would
be helpful to have that (make install probably strips them), but maybe
not required if I just can get a nonbroken backtrace.
