To get the same behaviour as with the Cygwin binary Mutt, some more
tweaking of configure flags or other stuff seems required. Two
differences I've noted so far:

* An error message "repetition-operator operand invalid" appears on
  startup for "*" instead of ".*" in folder-hook directives.

* My built forgets about mailboxes it has seen so they're all flagged
  as containing new messages.

As I said, it would be fine to have a binary Mutt compiled and linked
against ncursesw with wide character support.
