That suggests that `--enable-fulldirhash' didn't work.  Does it show
up in config.status?  Does `USE_DIR_FULL 1' show up in config.h?
Or, perhaps some of the old commands are running?

Those are correct for full directory hashing.  The `rehash' script
should have moved your existing mailboxes to the correct directories,
if it was able to find them.  Perhaps you changed the location?
