OK, finally I tracked that bug down. The underlying problem is as I supposed namespacing (my namespace prefix is "INBOX."). In sieve_keep (sieve-cmu.c), the mailbox name is fetched from sieve_msgdata_t and then transferred to deliver_save (deliver.c). The problem is, that the default mailbox name in sieve_msgdata_t is - according to my namespace - "INBOX.". But deliver_save and mailbox_open_or_create_synced don't like that trailing dot, which leads to an error. This leads to default saving in the user's inbox, so in fact there happens what would happen anyways - but there's an error put out.
Generally, I think that this should be fixed in deliver which should strip trailing separators automatically when needed. Also I think that saving to INBOX instead of some other folder should be a no error but a warning. It should also be considered that for now, if using plus-extensions with delivers' -n option, when a folder doesn't exist and the mail is put into INBOX instead, an error is put out - although being perfectly desired behavior. Deliver should put out some warning in the log file instead of "/* silently store to the INBOX instead */" at line 225 and then leave without error code.
