And it seems I have found a viable solution now.  In the UW IMAP FAQs[1]
I found the missing information on how to convert an arbitrary mailbox
to an mbxdriver compatible format (which is actually a binary format).
Creating a new mailbox with

  mailutils create #driver.mbx/mailbox

was not possible, so I rebuilt the IMAP tools with CREATEPROTO=mbxproto
as described in the FAQ article.  After that I was able to do

  mailutils copy old-mailbox new-mailbox

The resulting file new-mailbox could be opened and processed under
Windows (binary distribution of PHP 5.4.7).
