Ahhhh, sorry.  The only way I would know to fix this would be a 
heavy-handed method as you already mentioned.  Dump, fix and import, or 
just use cyr_dbtool to edit the entry on the backend.

For example:

# cyr_dbtool /imap/conf/mailboxes.db skiplist get user.testuser3
2 u1 testuser3  lrswipkxtecda

# cyr_dbtool /imap/conf/mailboxes.db skiplist set user.testuser3 "0 u1 
testuser3        lrswipkxtecda"

Set is in the form "<state> <location> <username> <acl>".  Importantly, 
the whitespace between the <username> and <acl> must be a tab character, 
so ^V^I.

Sorry that I have nothing else to offer.
