[Dovecot] dovecot 2.1.3 dsync Unexpected finish reply

I've been moving users from one system to another by doing a dsync
mirror operation. The first dsync mirror takes some time, because of the
number of users involved, so I am doing an initial sync, and then I
direct the users to the new location and do a final 'freshening' sync to
get any changes that happened during the longer sync.

The problem seems to be with this freshening sync, it seems quite
fragile breaking with things like:

dsync-local(user at example.com): Warning: Mailbox changes caused a desync. You may want to run dsync again.

those final "Unexpected finish reply" and "Unexpected reply from server"
are a bit surprising results. 

Running dsync again seems to resolve things, but there seems to be a bug
here that is causing unexpected results to leak through to the dsync
process?

thanks,
