So do you mean you really tried beta3 release, not the nightly
snapshot / hg version? Because I thought that error didn't happen with
beta3.

Recent hg versions convert v1.2 configs to v2.0 configs automatically.
That is what it outputs with your config:

auth_mechanisms = digest-md5 cram-md5 ntlm login plain
passdb {
  args = /etc/cram.pwd
  driver = passwd-file
}
service auth {
  unix_listener /var/run/dovecot/auth-client {
    mode = 0666
  }
  user = exim
}
userdb {
  driver = passwd
}
userdb {
  args = /etc/passwd
  driver = passwd-file
}
