I can trigger this issue by the following sequence of IMAP commands:
telnet dovecot imap
...
0 login peter <super-duper-secret-password-goes-here>
1 select inbox
2 fetch 1 body.peek[]
After the fetch command I will get the message sent to me
and then the connection goes away. ("2 OK Fetch completed."
is _not_ printed)
A debugger attached to the imap process after the inital login
has been handled gives the following traceback:

I've tried a couple of different compilers and optimization settings now
and the results are as follows:
Sun Studio 12:
------------------------
-g -fast -m64 FAILS
-g -O -m64 FAILS
-g -m64 WORKS
-fast -m64 FAILS
-g -O -m32 WORKS
GCC 4.3.0:
------------------------
-g -O -m64 FAILS
-g -m64 WORKS
-g -O -m32 WORKS
Ie: Optimized 64 bit code fails. Other variants works.
Hmm.. Perhaps some 64 vs 32 bits issue somewhere? Pointers passed as
32 bit ints due to missing prototypes somewhere?
I saw the other mail regarding imap problems (subject: imap crashes
with SIGSEGV). The machine I'm running this on is a Sun Fire T1000
that have a CPU with 6 cores and 4 threads per core - ie, it looks
like a 24 CPU multicore machine. Perhaps a related issue?
