After the upgrade to Cyrus IMAP 2.2.5 (SASL 2.1.18), I've been seeing a lot of these errors in the logs:

Jun 1 08:51:37 cyrus master[21185]: [ID 970914 local6.error] process 23457 exited, signaled to death by 11


I grepped for the process id's that exited in the log file and see that they are all imapd processes from various users. I've been reconstructing their mailboxes hoping that was the cause, but I was wondering if there is a way to get a better trace of what is happening. It seems hard to get an strace or truss on the imap process since you don't know which one will die. Is there any technique to watching these processes? Is there anything else I should be looking for? Below is the configure commands I used to build imap and sasl. I used gcc 3.3.2 on Solaris SPARC 9.

Thanks in advance for any advice,
