 You can use gdb, by putting breakpoints at the right places (you need to
 guess and try) and stepping the program. As some compiler optimizations
 are incompatible with gdb, you need to compile without optimizations
 (-O0); -O1 may work too, without guarantee. First try if you can reproduce
 the bug without optimizations; if you can't, this is probably a compiler
 bug.

 If for some reason you can't use gdb, you can modify Mutt's code to add
 some debugging messages outputting values of variables at the right
 places. This may also be more convenient that gdb (in case of multiple
 calls of functions that would make breakpoints tedious).
