A defunct/dead operating system, last released in 2003, support withdrawn in 2004. BSDI went belly up. Wind River acquired and then killed BSD/OS. You're using a dead, 9 year old OS, that hasn't seen official updates for 8 years.
Do you think it's fair to ask application developers to support the oddities of your one-of-a-kind, ancient, patchwork of a platform?
We've had this discussion before. And I don't believe you ever provided a sane rational for continuing to use an OS that's been officially dead for 8 years. What is the reason you are unable or unwilling to migrate to a newer and supported no cost BSD variant, or Linux distro?
You're trying to run bleeding edge Dovecot, compiling it from source, on an 8 year old platform...
Maybe "The Doctor" has no idea on how to migrate. I see no other sane reason to continue running that OS.
