[Dovecot] test80: assert/core debug info

Timo,

Attached is gdb information from core dumps related to the
following assert in test-80:

IMAP(username): file mbox-sync-update.c: line 442 
(mbox_sync_update_header_from): assertion failed: (ctx->mail.uid == 0 || 
ctx->mail.uid_broken || ctx->mail.uid == mail->uid)

My setup: Solaris 9, mbox format.  test-80 compiled with 
gcc 4.0.1 using the following configure options:

CC=gcc CFLAGS="-g -O" CPPFLAGS=-I/opt/openssl/include LDFLAGS=-L/opt/openssl/lib \
./configure --prefix=/opt/dovecot.test80 --with-ssl=openssl \
--with-ssldir=/opt/openssl/ssl --with-rawlog --enable-debug

Note that system mailboxes are NFS mounted from the mail server
to the IMAP server, which may cause you to groan.

The attached debug session was done with gdb 6.3, also compiled
with gcc 4.0.1.  Note that some of the variables I queried were
undefined (or otherwise unknown to gdb).  The variable "first_nonexpunged"
at line 470 of mbox-sync-rewrite.c is undefined, and I wondered
why it was scoped so locally.  The value of mails[idx] being
undefined at mbox-sync-rewrite.c:353 also seems like bad news.

Hope this helps.
