Are you running the command line squatter as root? If so, then maybe there's a file early in the squatter run that's root owned and causing squatter to abort when run as the cyrus user - I'm afriad I don't know much about squatter, but that would be my first suspicion. Another theory - do you have a custom imapd.conf for the master process? If so, the hand run squatter may be reading a different config file from the one run by master. Finally - have you tried changing the squatter command that master runs to do an strace dump to a file somewhere so you can see what it was trying?
