If I recall correctly, the customer I wrote that for had Cyrus
authenticating through some other mechanism (regular unix accounts or
RADIUS, I think).  I don't have any current customers using Cyrus in
production.  If there are other ways of exporting to Cyrus, send a patch
to add options to the export.

I think that's an awful idea.
