Just installed the version from CVS as of Oct. 27.
I noticed three problems quite quickly:
Still seeing "(imap) killed with signal 14"
My INBOX closed with "access error" after reading it for a bit. There's nothing in the logs or anything, but this hasn't happened for quite a while now. There where quite a lot of incoming messages at the time and I was marking messages as deleted using pine. After reverting to the last version of dovecot that I was using and restarting pine, it opened quickly (no reindexing) and the deleted emails where marked as deleted. I don't know if this helps much ;-)
The rest is a backtrace, etc. of an assertion failure:
dovecot: Oct 27 16:58:12 Error: 13481 imap(username): file mbox-sync-rewrite.c: line 393 (mbox_sync_read_and_move): assertion failed: (need_space == (uoff_t)-mails[idx].space)
dovecot: Oct 27 16:58:29 Error: child 13481 (imap) killed with signal 6
