This is not necessary.  /etc/userdb may be a directory, and installing a soft
link from the subdirectory to an external file should also work.

Furthermore, the --with-userdb option to the configure script replaces
/etc/userdb with something else.  Since you're apparently packaging
Courier-IMAP for yourself, this should be a workable solution to be added
to your packaging script.
