I don't see any obvious way for this to happen. Can you reproduce it by running imap process directly and talking imap protocol? Something like this would be helpful:

chmod a+rw /var/run/dovecot/config
gdb /usr/local/lib/dovecot/imap
b i_error
run
<make gdb stop>
bt full

where the <make gdb stop> will probably work if you do something like:

a list "" *
b lsub "" *
c select inbox

if not, check what IMAP commands your IMAP client sends when it fails. http://wiki2.dovecot.org/Debugging/Rawlog
