Among others, I use the following configure options:--prefix=$HOME/sw --with-curses=$HOME/sw Unfortunately, configure doesn't seem to be able to find ncurses in $HOME/sw. It finds the system-wide ncurses library instead, and later mutt is linked against that one.
So, to be clear, you don't see -I$HOME/sw/include in the various gcc lines during compilation and you don't see -L$HOME/sw/lib in the final mutt compilation line?
It looks like --with-ncurses=DIR is being ignored for some reason, or at least isn't having the desired effect. If it helps, I can send the config.log; it's about 1 MiB in size.
If you want, you could include just a portion. Trim the front until the first line with "waddnwstr", and then trim from the mention of "typeahead" onward.
