Yes, this problem was pointed out before. For now, you can work around 
this by setting a sieve_global_path= pointing to a script containing 
only 'keep;'. This makes sure the global script is executed, because 
then there is a default alternative for the personal script if it is 
missing for a particular user.

I'll fix this in the course of this week.

Stephan.
