Wow! That's quite the difference!

There's the problem. :)

>How to get 1.5.17 use libncursesw.so.5?

You have to install the development headers for it. According to 
Ubuntu's web page, the package that provided the libncursesw.so.5 
library is libncursesw5 (shockingly enough), and the package that 
provides the headers allowing a person to compile software that works 
with that library is in the package libncursesw5-dev.

When you run mutt's configure script, it uses the best development 
headers it can find. If all you have is libncurses headers, that's all 
it'll use.
