I too prefer to have different log facilities / files for MTA and
Cyrus-IMAPd.

Very trivial to change that in the .spec file of Simon's SRC.RPM:
# used syslog facility for logging
%{!?SYSLOGFACILITY: %define SYSLOGFACILITY LOCAL6}
rpmbuild -ba --target x86_64 cyrus-imapd.spec
Easy and you have the software within the package manager after
installation as an RPM.

The syslog facility is a compile time setting only.
