Heh - I solve it.
To make it compile in FreeBSD you need to:
cd /usr/ports/mail/dovecot
make extract
mkdir work/dovecot-1.1.*/sys
locate sysmacros.h
cp /your/path/to/sysmacros.h  work/dovecot-1.1.*/sys/
patch it as sayd at wiki.
And then all work well.
I don't really understand why that would be necessary. The sysmacros.h
isn't required. In that case Dovecot's config.h shouldn't have
HAVE_SYS_SYSMACROS_H defined, but you do for some reason. Why is the
port doing that?
I'd rather say this is a bug in the FreeBSD ports. If you compiled
Dovecot directly from sources you wouldn't have had this problem.
