try with configure --disable-ipv6 and ssl enabled
Same thing's happening to me:

# /usr/local/sbin/dovecot Error: socket() failed: Protocol not supported Fatal: listen(993) failed: Protocol not supported
I had the same issue, and adding:
ssl_listen = *:993
to dovecot.conf solved it for me. This wasn't necessary in 1.0b7, but appears to be necessary in 1.0b8 and above. I didn't do to much digging to see what the root cause was, but the above line solved the problem for me!
