Just read this again and wondered if you meant that you converted the
files to berkeley db but did not switch from skiplist to berkeley db
in the imapd.conf.template. Probably not.

Could you check the format of the mailbox/annotation.db again. Does it
have "skiplist" on the first few bytes or is is berkeley?
