Running two different versions (or even having them present on the
system) of BDB libraries is always somewhat a problem. Save yourself
a lot of trouble and use Cyrus' utilities to dump the mailbox database
into a text file (ctl_mboxlist -d) on the old system, then read the
database back with ctl_mboxlist -u on the new installation.

cvt_cyrusdb is used to convert between two different Cyrus database
backends, not to upgrade a Berkeley database.
