I'm quite sure you're mistaken:

:set ?nomark_old
nomark_old: unknown variable

$ /usr/local/bin/mutt -v |grep -i mutt
Mutt 1.5.18 (2008-08-25)
[...]

I do, however, have "mark_old" unset:
:set ?mark_old
mark_old is unset

And the behavior is exactly as I described:  If I visit a folder
stored in mbox, but don't view any of the messages, then move to a
different folder, mutt no longer thinks there is new mail in that
folder, and *will not*  prompt for that folder when I hit c... at
least not until new mail is subsequently delivered there.  If I choose
that folder manually, the index does, of course, show the messages
which I didn't read marked as new.
