These processes do not seem to have an associated init script to

Yes, but I've stopped and restarted dovecot. New processes *later* come up as flagged by checkrestart as using old versions of upgraded files. So, something is still getting old files somehow..... with no further system changes whatsoever

I believe these are the worker processes spawned by the main dovecot server, one for each connection a user makes. They only go away when the user disconnects, even if the main server is restarted, in order not to forcedly disconnect users.
