Out of curiosity I took a look at the cmusieve sources and I could not
spot the problem. I tested this at my end and I could not reproduce
this, meaning that both of my redirects (in addition to the keep action)
were delivered properly. So, it is definitely not designed that way and
therefore this may be a bug or (less likely) a misconfiguration. I am
using the latest 1.1 mercurial versions of dovecot and the dovecot
cmusieve plugin. 

The logs should provide more information. After executing your script
with alternate addresses, my logs look as follows (with mail_debug=yes):

That is correct. However, to prevent  abuse, the RFC requires Sieve
implementors to impose a limit on the maximum number of redirects
executed. The new Dovecot Sieve is configured for a maximum of 4
redirects by default, which will be configurable.
