Have you set the 'configdirectory' parameter in your /etc/imapd.conf file? 
It looks like mkimap isn't seeing one, so it's trying to use an empty 
string instead. This will also explain messages such as

> Feb  4 20:55:26 imap ctl_cyrusdb[15487]: DBERROR db4: 
> /var/imap/db/__db.001: No such file or directory

(in this case master is trying to use /var/imap as the config directory).

As well as this there are other things in imapd.conf you need to set - 
the imapd.conf manpage is a must-read for this.
