dovecot - Dec 2011 - lazy_expunge plugin and folder subscription trouble

Hello,
I wanted to test the lazy expunge plugin together with mdbox. It seems  
to me that the folder subscriptions file in the mdbox directory was  
overwritten with only a few folder names every time I added or removed  
something in the list of subscribed folders, or even if I turned the  
imap folder subscription feature off and on. Here is my setup:

# 2.0.16: /opt/local/etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf
# OS: SunOS 5.10 sun4v

mail_location = mdbox:~/mdbox
mail_plugins = mail_log notify quota lazy_expunge zlib

mdbox_rotate_interval = 1 days
mdbox_rotate_size = 16 M
namespace {
   inbox = yes
   location    prefix    separator = /
   type = private
}
namespace {
   hidden = yes
   list = no
   location    prefix = Mail/
   separator = /
   subscriptions = yes
   type = private
}
namespace {
   location =  
maildir:/var/mail/public:CONTROL=~/Maildir/public:INDEX=~/Maildir/public
   prefix = Public/
   separator = /
   subscriptions = no
   type = public
}
namespace {
   location = mdbox:~/mdbox:MAILBOXDIR=expunged
   prefix = .EXPUNGED/
   separator = /
}
plugin {
   autocreate = Trash
   autocreate2 = caughtspam
   autocreate3 = Sent
   autocreate4 = Drafts
   autosubscribe = Trash
   autosubscribe2 = caughtspam

   quota = fs:Home-Verzeichnis:noenforcing
   sieve = ~/.dovecot.sieve
   sieve_dir = ~/sieve
   zlib_save = gz
   zlib_save_level = 3
}
protocols = imap pop3 lmtp sieve
quota_full_tempfail = yes
sendmail_path = /usr/lib/sendmail
service auth {

   vsz_limit = 1 G
}

Right, with this it thinks that it owns the ~/mdbox/subscriptions file,
but that is the same path as for the inbox namespace. I think with
subscriptions=no it should have worked ok, but if not, use a different
subscriptions filename:

location =
mdbox:~/mdbox:MAILBOXDIR=expunged:SUBSCRIPTIONS=subscriptions-expunged
