All mkdir()s in imap process go through mkdir_parents(), so see if  
this gives you assert-crashes:

diff -r 6fec5522a3b0 src/lib/mkdir-parents.c
--- a/src/lib/mkdir-parents.c   Thu Jul 10 22:38:31 2008 +0530
+++ b/src/lib/mkdir-parents.c   Thu Jul 31 19:45:22 2008 +0300

  {
         const char *p;
         int ret;
+
+       i_assert((mode & 0100) != 0);

         /* EISDIR check is for BSD/OS which returns it if path  
contains '/'
            at the end and it exists.
