This was all very bizarre, but it is now resolved.

The Maildir was a link in the user's home directory, pointing at another
partition. I re-created the user with the other partition as their home
directory, set some selinux contexts correctly for this, and made Maildir a real
directory there. Procmail now delivers just fine with no changes in the 
.procmailrc

I still don't understand how this worked before the crash, and wouldn't work
after I restored files, but hey, persistence pays off. It works again...
