it looks like this code in imap.el is the culprit:

                    (if (null (let ((imap-stream stream))
                                (imap-open-1 (current-buffer))))
                        (progn
                          (kill-buffer (current-buffer))
                          (message
                           "imap: Reconnecting with stream `%s'...failed"
                           stream))
                      ;; We're done, kill the first connection
                      (imap-close buffer)
                      (let ((name (if (stringp buffer)
                                      buffer
                                    (buffer-name buffer))))
                        (kill-buffer buffer)
                        (rename-buffer name)

So the function that you're using to create the tls connection doesn't
set `process-kill-without-query' on the process it creates.  Do you have
a private version of tls.el or something installed?
