I'm currently trying to setup cyrus-imapd-2.1.11 on a NetBSD 1.6 server. For some reason I keep seeing errors in the log files whenever the ctl_cyrusdb checkpoint event is issued.
This is what I saw in the logs when I first started the master process..

Is there any reason to be concerned about these errors?
