But the FreeBSD ports tree is up to the latest 2.2.15 -- yet we were
still experiencing the panics, and had to apply those patches. So I'm
wondering more about what version release of Dovecot itself will include
those mbox sync patches. . .

Do you mind to open a PR in the FreeBSD Bugzilla?

Sorry, I think my naive question about the Dovecot development process
has lead us astray. The bug wasn't specific to FreeBSD (or the FreeBSD
port.) It's apparently fixed by 31262a892ba7 and 80ed82a93c1a so I was
just wondering how Dovecot development works: should we expect these
patches to be a part of 2.3 when it's released? Or might they appear in
a 2.2.16 or somesuch?
