    Ok, the problem was actually in the LDAP schema that was being used. (It 
was taken from an obscure project; I'll email the authors and let them know.) 
It used the SUP keyword incorrectly, refering to an attribute, rather than an 
object. I don't know why it threw Dovecot off, since SASL and Postfix seemed 
to have handled it gracefully, but correcting the schema fixed everything. If 
anyone wants to know more details, I would be willing to provide them, but 
otherwise, case closed.
