These files should be installed under libexec; probably
/usr/local/dovecot/libexec/dovecot, though I'm not sure how autoconf
chooses the libexec directory when you're using an explicit prefix. What
do the following give you (in the top-level Dovecot source dir)?

    grep ^libexecdir config.log
    grep ^exec_prefix config.log
    grep ^prefix config.log
