Thanks for the tip! That is a good clue. I'll probably port the patch 
back to 3.0.17 in wip first, as I'm using this version productively and 
can't go to a newer one so quickly. I have to admit that updating the 
package to a newer Cyrus version has been on my TODO list for some time, 
but so far I haven't made any significant progress. As long as version 
3.0 is still being maintained upstream, I hadn't given it that much 
urgency either. But it's about time ;-)

Kind regards
Matthias
