This finally got to the top of my list. Although I don't run Dovecot, I think
I've found the problem. The Dovecot authenticator was written by an OP; the
problem seems to be that the values of $auth1 etc are left in stack memory, and
can therefore be overwritten. I have a patch that might fix this; I can't
myself test it. I will attach it here shortly for you to try.
