If you start/stop dovecot with an initscript or some other related system, you can do what SuSE does, since this problem occurs in lots of situations, not just dovecot.
Since you know where all the config files are, you could either have the initscript set up a directory with symlinks, as Timo said, or you could collect them together and place them all in one file that is in the correct location. Multiple config files for dovecot can be concatenated together if you are careful to scan for and accommodate "include" directives.
