I guess you've downloaded a Dovecot package for Lenny instead of Etch.
Etch's version is pretty old anyway: v1.0.rc15.

Backports.org has v1.0.15 for Etch.

What version of Dovecot do you have installed and from where?

Anyway, you can easily try to install any older library, which provides 
the development files for the particular dependency, because your goal is 
just to compile Dovecot in order to get lib-sieve compiled.

then run debian/rules build
