Nope, plain ext3. I have these issues since upgrading to Ubuntu 11.10, 
which was a dovecot upgrade from 1.2.15 to 2.0.13. Currently I use a 
self-built 2.0.15 dovecot. I'm still getting errors once in a while for 
the dovecot.index.log file:

Nov  4 16:29:03 keira dovecot: imap(isa): Error: fcntl(unlock) locking 
failed for file /home/dovecot/isa/dovecot.index.log: No such file or 
directory
Nov  4 16:29:03 keira dovecot: imap(isa): Error: fstat() failed with 
file /home/dovecot/isa/dovecot.index.log: No such file or directory

These errors occur regardless of the lock_method used.

And occasionally I also get errors like:

Nov  3 19:03:34 keira dovecot: imap(mikey): Error: Corrupted transaction 
log file /home/dovecot/mikey/dovecot.index.log seq 15: offset points 
outside file (32708 + 8 > 32708) (sync_offset=32800)

I believe the latter was recently reported by someone else on this list 
as well. The files are there, though I guess that dovecot recreates them 
when the errors occurs so I don't know what the situation was by the 
time the error occurred...
