[Dovecot] dovecot-pgsql.conf can't find in chroot? (debian)

[Matthew J. Harmon]

In my original email I noted that the directory /usr/local/etc was in
the dovecot.conf variable valid_chroot_dirs :

valid_chroot_dirs = /usr/local/etc:/etc:/var/mail:/lib

Is that not sufficient?  Under the /var/run/dovecot directory the
directories ./usr/local/etc exist with dovecot-pgsql.conf in.

Is there some big RTFM item I'm missing here?

P.S. - email address changed due to problems with upstream, will jump
back as soon as this is fixed so I can finish my migration :)

Plagued with an error I can't get past:
==> dovecot_info.log <==
dovecot: Mar 04 22:09:06 Info: Dovecot starting up
==> dovecot.log <==
dovecot-auth: Mar 04 22:09:07 Fatal: Can't open configuration file 
/usr/local/etc/dovecot-pgsql.conf: No such file or directory

dovecot: Mar 04 22:09:07 Error: Auth process died too early - shutting

pop3-login: Mar 04 22:09:07 Fatal: fd_send(-1) failed: Broken pipe

I have dovecot (+ssl) configured on debian in a chroot with 
postfix+pgsql+sasl.

The file exists, and permissions look good:
root at alfa:~# ls -la /usr/local/etc/dovecot-pgsql.conf
lrwxrwxrwx  1 root dovecot 31 2005-03-04 20:35 
/usr/local/etc/dovecot-pgsql.conf -> /etc/dovecot/dovecot-pgsql.conf
root at alfa:~# ls -la /etc/dovecot/dovecot-pgsql.conf
-rw-r--r--  1 root dovecot 2875 2005-03-01 23:38 
/etc/dovecot/dovecot-pgsql.conf

But... dovecot-auth can't see it?  That's weird...
root at alfa:~# strace -vffF /etc/init.d/dovecot start 1>& ~/dovecot.strace
root at alfa:~# less ~/dovecot.strace

Excerpts from /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf:
auth_userdb = pgsql /usr/local/etc/dovecot-pgsql.conf
auth_passdb = pgsql /usr/local/etc/dovecot-pgsql.conf
login_chroot = yes
valid_chroot_dirs = /usr/local/etc:/etc:/var/mail:/lib
auth_chroot = /var/run/dovecot-auth

Any recommended next steps?

Thanks a million!
