[Dovecot] No auto-conversion of .customflags?

Hello,

I'm in the process of migrating 0.99 dovecot maildir boxes to a pair
of new machine. These servers were running the stable (etch) 1.0rc15
package of dovecot until yesterday and existing .customflags files
were correctly converted to dovecot-keywords. Yesterday I upgraded 
to the (finally, thanks to who did this) 1.0.0 etch backports package
and since then freshly migrated boxes get this error:
---
Jun 12 09:48:06 mb11 dovecot: IMAP(username): stat(/longandboringpath/username/.customflags/cur) failed: Not a directory
---

Firstly, I thought Linux was one of the OS' that had a free dir stat, but
I guess I could have just hallucinated that.

But more importantly, obviously .customflags does NOT get converted
anymore and thus shows up in IMAP LIST commands.

Since I doubt that the backport people did change anything in the code
I suppose that this is a genuine 1.0.0 problem which probably should be
addressed for the upcoming 1.0.1 release.

Regards,

Christian
