I have just downgraded dovecot-{core,imapd} to 1:2.1.7-6 and have *as of now*
not yet experienced any problems. I will keep on using this setup for longer
and will fervently continue moving mails between folders.

The symptoms I ran into before the downgrade were, as noted earlier, different
from those that Ryan experienced in that mutt did not crash for me but
"merely" ran into two errors, namely:

    * tls_socket_read (A TLS fatal alert has been received.)
    * imap_sync_message: STORE failed

The latter is being raised in imap.c [0] in the imap_sync_message function. I
have to admit that this function looks a bit, well, hacky, but I am even more
convinced that this is a problem with mutt's IMAP handling or a change in
dovecot's implementation (or both).
