I'm using a different BSD, so I can't help with particulars, but...
One thing you might try is looking at what's going on in the FreeBSD
ports, for two reasons. First, you may be able to build out of the ports
tree and get what you need. Second, even if you don't want to actually
use ports you may find very helpful pointers there on building mutt
correctly on FreeBSD. :-)
