Problem w/ 2.2.4 and unixhierarchysep: yes

[AJ]

Rob,
   There is no core dumped from what I can tell, it looks like master 
just dies for that process.  Did you test this on a clean install of 
2.2.4, and clean partitions and config directories.  This does not seem 
to occur on an install of 2.2.4 that was upgraded i.e., the mailboxes 
and database were not created from scratch.  It's odd.

Let me know.
