delayed expunge and expire annotation

We're also running 2.3.16 (on RHEL5), and I just checked. Ours is doing the 
same thing. Mailboxes annotated with an expire annotation don't appear to 
be getting reaped by cyr_expire. There are messages in the directory all 
the way back to May. Other mailboxes don't seem to be suffering this; 
delayed expunge is working as expected on them. Maybe something is 
happening in cyr_expire that causes it to fail when it hits an annotated 
mailbox? I'll check our logs and try manually running cyr_expire on the 
offending mailbox to see if there's any indication of error.
