Just FYI, ONLY SINCE UPGRADING TO 1.1.11 from 1.1.10, a 'killall dovecot' yields this...

You may remember an obscure OS X bug relative to the syslogd restart. For over a year I've been sending the 'killall' in a daily.local or else dovecot's log entries would not get written to mail.log after the syslogd gets restarted. Since I'm using the OS X launchdaemons, dovecot gets restarted after the 'killall'. Anyway, for over the year, this crash had never been written to the logs prior to last night and upgrading to 1.1.11. All continues to work fine but something has definitely changed since 1.1.10.
