Hmmm...looks like it came about due to needing a different 
authentication configuration between IMAP and deliver, which led to a 
different auth process and necessitated a separate base_dir. The two run 
directories are clearly different, and both used:

/var/run/dovecot:
auth-worker.25176=  dict-server=        login/              master.pid 


/var/run/dovecot-deliver:
auth-master=        auth-worker.13452=  dict-server=        login/ 
         master.pid


Perhaps there's a way to do that within a single config file.
