The problem is that the mailboxes.db contents format is unchanged, but if you have mailboxes.db itself as a Berkeley DB file, and your Cyrus is compiled against a different version of Berkeley, then that could cause problems. I think following the HOWTO as you plan is the best solution in your circumstance.
