I suspect that Mutt hasn't been updated for Automake 1.12.
In the Automake 1.11 manual:
`AM_C_PROTOTYPES'
This is required when using the deprecated de-ANSI-fication
feature; *note ANSI::. _It will be removed_ in the next major
Automake release.
So, you need to remove the AM_C_PROTOTYPES line from configure.ac
(FYI, this was the solution for MPFR, which had the same problem).
