So you're saying that it's using symbols from a library that it's
not linking too, and then you wonder why it breaks?

That it works with just using libcyrus.la does not mean that
it's the right thing to do.  You should have added all libraries
that you use symbols from.  If the libtool documentation does not
say that, or not clearly enough, then I think that's a problem
with the documentation.
