No, that's fine. You have to do the same with bison.hairy.

Don't do that (remove the stuff you copied in before going any further).
Instead, find where Cyrus::IMAP::Shell was installed to, and add that to
your Perl 5 include path. Probably the easiest way to do this is to add an
environment var 'PERL5LIB'. Or, go into the 'perl' directory in the Cyrus
source tree and type 'make clean; perl
Makefile.pl --prefix=<something/in/your/perl5 @INC>;make;make test;make
install'.
I removed the perl RPM for RH7.1--I've found that compiling my own Perl
avoids a lot of problems. YMMV.
