I managed to run in the root folder lda and sievec . I add the group mail to root more +w flag and everything should work properly

My global scripts located in /etc/dovecot/sieve. IMHO it's not a good idea to allow write access to this folder or add group mail to root. I think, the problem can be easy enclosed if sievec won't drop privileges and have comandline option to redefine user's home dir.

Why are you using a kernel that is no longer even in portage?

It just working and well tested under current server's hardware. Updating is planned once a year.
