Try run after reconstruct:
sudo -H -u cyrus /usr/lib/cyrus/bin/quota -f

As I understand, cyrus uses unix philosophy, one tool must do on thing, 
but it must do it well :)
So reconstruct tool is for reconstruct mailboxes so called filesystem 
(discover missing messages, folders, or remove them from 
indexes/internal db if they don't exist anymore, etc).
Quota tool is for recalculate mailbox usage and there is no point to 
run quota fix after every mailbox reconstruct.

Please correct me, if I'm wrong.

Rgrds,
