NetBSD ... 6.0 NetBSD 6.0 (LIBKVER) #0: Tue Jan 19 00:00:00 UTC 2038 root@localhost:/sys/arch/amd64/compile/LIBKVER amd64
Architecture: amd64
Machine: amd64
>Description:

	mail/mutt-devel looks for a mail spool on the build host to
	determine statically where to look for mail.  This is wrong,
	and breaks if you build it in a chroot with no mail spool, for
	example.

>How-To-Repeat:

	Built mutt-devel in a chroot with no mail spool.

>Fix:

	I have worked around it by adding

CONFIGURE_ARGS+=	--with-homespool=yes
