epoll_ctl(2):

    EEXIST op  was  EPOLL_CTL_ADD,  and  the supplied file  

descriptor fd is already in epfd.

I don't really know why that would happen though. The code shouldn't
be adding the same fd twice.

Im using a (very) old SuSE 9.0 installation with ext2.

Perhaps it's a bug in an older kernel. Try configuring Dovecot without
epoll:

./configure --with-ioloop=poll
