I have reported this one before (running CVS from Oct 31) and sent
backtraces as well. With this version of dovecot I've also seen
assertion failures:

file buffer.c: line 230 (buffer_copy): assertion failed: (src_pos <=
src->used)

file mbox-sync-rewrite.c: line 400 (mbox_sync_read_and_move): assertion
failed: (need_space == (uoff_t)-mails[idx].space)

file mbox-sync.c: line 1297 (mbox_sync_handle_eof_updates): assertion
failed: (file_size >= sync_ctx->expunged_space + trailer_size)

Have given backtraces of all these failures to the dovecot-list. Hope to
see fixes in near future. ;-)
