Re: 1.5.16 build issues on BSD

Hi,

./configure seems to work OK (using --prefix=$HOME) but I needed a specific
--with-homespool as well.

However although it compiles (with *lots* of warnings about things that
ANSI C doesn't support) it fails to link with the following errors:-

   pattern.o: In function `mutt_which_case':
   /home/isbd/build/mutt-1.5.16/pattern.c:150: undefined reference to `iswalpha'
   /home/isbd/build/mutt-1.5.16/pattern.c:150: undefined reference to `iswupper'
   *** Error code 1
As said, 4-STABLE is really pretty old. Also as said, the problem is mutt searching for certain wide character functions which are available in FreeBSD's C library since 5.x and later.
You could try to configure with --without-wc-funcs and see if that helps.
