sorry for the noise.
my current shell session time zone (TZ) differed from the system timezone. as
soon as i corrected TZ in the shell config files, started a new shell session,
and then started a new instance of alpine, i was prompted for the passfile
master password and all is now well. account credentials on this new host are
now persistent.
if the timezone correction is a false correlation with the behaviour change,
then what caused the behaviour change?
could this problem be a possible bug, or perhaps a case of a missing and helpful
error message?

Subject: [Alpine-info] account password persistence
i build alpine from source and specify absolute path for the passfile.
when quitting the alpine instance, i am not prompted for a master password to
keep any account credentials persistent.
this persistence is functional on other hosts in my network; why not this
host?
build sequence is identical; source is identical; ~/.pinerc is identical.
something is clearly different, but i have not been able to find the
difference.
would anyone have knowledge about what i need to fix?
thanks.
