dovecot - Nov 2007 - Path to public folder subscription file not created in 1.1b7?

I use CONTROL=%h/Maildir/dovecot/public/control/[namespace] for each of my
public
namespaces.  A few nights ago, I noticed having a new user subscribe to public
folders
for the first time will silently fail, becuase the path up to the subscriptions
file
will not be created.  I am pretty sure dovecot used to create it for me, but
maybe
that changed in a recent version, or maybe I did something to break it?  Work
around
is to mkdir -p /home/[user]/Maildir/dovecot/public/control/[namespace] but
I'd like
to avoid having to do that.  Once I create the directory and make sure it is
writable,
the client can subscribe to public folders in that namespace.  If they do not
have
permission, it still silently fails. 

namespace:
  type: public
  separator: /
  prefix: #shared/decs/
  location: 
maildir:/egr/mail/shared/decs:CONTROL=%h/Maildir/dovecot/public/control/decs:INDEX=%h/Maildir/dovecot/%q/public/indexes/decs
  list: yes
  subscriptions: yes

It should have logged an error. But yes, this did change recently.  
Fixed now in hg.

If you set subscriptions=no they'll be stored in the root namespace's  
subscriptions. If there are no problems with permissions, you could  
use a shared control directory for all users.
