I just updated MySQL to Server version: 5.5.8 on my FreeBSD-8.2 system.
Now Dovecot refuses to run. Prior to this, dovecot had been running for several
years without a problem.
This is the output of "dovecot -n"

This is the log file output, updated every second (snippet)

I have tried deleting and rebuilding dovecot without success. I am at a
lose to figure out what the problem is.
