[Dovecot] beta5: Solaris, IMAP, DOA

[Jeff A. Earickson]

Help...

Both beta4 and now beta5 die immediately at startup for me:

Apr  7 14:29:32 emerald dovecot: [ID 474997 mail.info] Dovecot v1.0.beta5 starting up
Apr  7 14:29:33 emerald dovecot: [ID 128275 mail.error] Auth process died too early - shutting down

My setup: Solaris 9, built with gcc 4.1.0, IMAP only, mbox format, 
INBOXes NFS mounted, index and other mail folders local disk.  Beta3 
continues to work great for me; imap-login for it notes "method=PLAIN, TLS" 
in the syslogs.  There were no real changes in my dovecot.conf between beta3 
and beta5.  What broke?  What to look for to fix this problem?
