Did you create the mailboxes in mailboxes.db (manually) before you ran 
cyrreconstruct? If the mailboxes are not listed in mailboxes.db, 
cyrreconstruct will not find them.

I have done this sort of migration a couple of times without problems. The 
only thing I could think of is bad memory in the server, which can easily 
corrupt Cyrus' database files.
