Well, I've at least narrowed this down to being a problem with PHP.

<?
  $mbox = imap_open ("{localhost:993/imap/ssl/novalidate-cert}INBOX", "username", "password");
  print $mbox . "\n";
?>

A corresponding non-ssl script works fine.  This script chokes in exactly
the same way IMP is.  A new imapd process is started, but nothing ever
happens.

Time to go bug some PHP folks..
