Looks like Dovecot's master process gives wrong file descriptors to 
auth/login processes. I can't really think of why.. Unless libc or 
something does something strange in the middle.

The strace you sent doesn't help much because Dovecot forks and the 
strace ends there. Give -f option to it and send it again?
