Sorry to followup on myself, but this is really nifty for those that
have been struggling with this.  Today Wietse posted a patch to qmgr
that addresses this problem.  If you're not on the postfix-users
list, you can probably snag it from one of the archives, such as:

  http://msgs.SecurePoint.com/postfix/

After you apply this patch to one of the recent snapshots, you can
put something like this in your main.cf:

# Use LMTP for local delivery.
local_destination_recipient_limit = 3000
local_destination_concurrency_limit = 5
mailbox_transport = lmtp:unix:/var/cyrus/socket/lmtp

(Assuming your MX host and Cyrus host are on the same box.)

Now not only will you be able to take advantage of the Cyrus single
instance message store feature, but you don't have to do anything
twisted to get your aliases (like for mailing lists) to expand.  :-)
