Eric, as what user are you starting imapd? You *are* running as
root, right?
Root.
I posted a trace on 7/13, here are the important bits:
Jul 13 21:41:42 rum dbmail/imap4d[288]: CreateSocket(): socket created
Jul 13 21:41:42 rum dbmail/imap4d[288]: CreateSocket(): socket IP

It makes the socket, then dies trying to work with shared memory. If
it wasn't root, it wouldn't have been able to make the socket.
