There's no reason they couldn't run on the same machine. Install Cyrus IMAPD as user 'cyrus' with a .qmail-default that is "|/path/to/cyrus/deliver $EXT". If someone with an account on the php.net wants to forward their mail into the IMAP system, they just have to set their .qmail-default file to "&cyrus-username". You could even do a little bit more magic in user cyrus's .qmail-default to allow messages to be forwarded into specific mailboxes. (There may also need to be a step in there necessary to create user accounts with Cyrus IMAPD.)
