I'm using Dovecot 1.2.9. I configured it like this:

% ./configure --prefix=/opt/rt --libdir=/opt/rt/lib
--libexecdir=/opt/rt/lib [other args...]

It compiled fine, but failed to install, because it tries to install a directory called <libdir>/dovecot/imap, and a file called <libexecdir>/dovecat/imap, which obviously doesn't work when libdir and libexecdir are the same directory:

Yeah. I'm not really planning on fixing this. I know Debian at least avoided this by using --with-moduledir=<libdir>/dovecot/modules.
