So I guess best meant epoll with you?

Well it's not really related to ioloop. It just means that dovecot-auth
didn't create authentication sockets into /var/run/dovecot/login
directory. I've no idea why changing epoll to poll would have fixed it.
Maybe you did something else while recompiling it that really fixed
it? :)
