If I had to reconstruct mailboxes that haven't yet been upgraded, I might
just deleted the cyrus.* files, unless the flag information is vital. It
is poor that reconstruct doesn't deal with this situation cleanly.

The "user.johnh" on the left of the tab character is the quotaroot to which
this mailbox belongs. If there isn't a string on the left side of the tab,
there's no quotaroot.
If there is a quotaroot, reconstruct should find it and put it in.
