Ubuntu/Debian systems do have a bin user as uid 2 whereas the official debs
distribute courier as daemon. Archlinux and I think rpm system have bin as
1 so deb/rpm packages all seem to install courier as mainly the uid 1 but
in my case I'm not sure why or where bin:bin is chosen?

It's hardwired in the makefiles.

The imap error I am seeing is (authdaemon is okay, it works)...

Sep 14 13:54:36 goldcoast authdaemond: Authenticated: clearpasswd=XXXX, passwd=<null>
[... set -x debug in /home/admin/share/imapd ending with...]
Sep 14 13:54:36 goldcoast imapd: ++ IMAPDSTART=YES
Sep 14 13:54:36 goldcoast imapd: ++ MAILDIRPATH=Maildir
Sep 14 13:54:36 goldcoast imapd: + case $1 in
Sep 14 13:54:36 goldcoast imapd: + exit 0

At this point $1 should be start|stop|restart. I'm about to remove everything
and rebuild from scratch.

Something's wrong somewhere. Wrong imapd. There's imapd in sbin, that starts and stops everything, and there's imapd the actual server. Once a connection comes in, and imaplogin authenticates, it should end up executing the imapd server, not the startup script in sbin.
