I am attempting to upgrade a Cyrus Murder from 2.3.12p2 to 2.3.14.  The
mupdate and backend servers are happy at 2.3.14, but on the frontends while
I can login successfully, attempting to select a folder fails with messages
like

May 29 12:13:59 kil-imap-13 master[15558]: process 15584 exited, signaled to 
death by 11
May 29 12:13:59 kil-imap-13 master[15558]: service imap pid 15584 in BUSY 
state: terminated abnormally

This is on Red Hat Linux 5 (2.6.18-128.1.6.el5PAE kernel).

I have not found anything in the Cyrus mailing list archive that looks like 
this.  A Google search did find a similar problem from just a couple of 
weeks ago with a Debian installation which was attributed to "packages 
sasl2-bin, libsasl2-2 and libsasl2-modules".

I am using the Red Hat SASL RPMs, version 2.1.22-4 which appears to be the
latest.  This has worked so far, so I have not installed SASL from Cyrus
itself.  The Cyrus SASL 2.1.23 announcement only talks about a "potential"
buffer overflow which suggests to me that the change there is not relevant

Should I switch to Cyrus SASL?

The mailbox database is skiplist, seen and subscription are flat, and quota
is legacy; others are Berkeley.
