#3596: Incorrect progress message "(-2147483648%)"

When mutt is fetching message headers from my IMAP account on startup, I
observe incorrect progress message such as:
"Fetching message headers... 196/2377 (-2147483648%)"
where "474" keeps changing but other numbers (196, -2147483648) remain the
same.
This is with the binary that came with Ubuntu 12.04.1 LTS. When I built my
own binary from the latest source code (v1.5.21) and ran it on the same
IMAP account, I didn't observe the erroneous behaviour. Therefore, I
believe it may be hard for others to reproduce, and analyzing the source
code may be the only way to find when the percentage value can be
-2147483648.
'mutt -dX' doesn't seem to produce any information that helps understand
why the calculation is incorrect (even when X=5); the only messages
regarding the progress update are like the following:
[2012-10-15 13:58:36] updating progress: 196
[2012-10-15 13:58:36] Fetching message headers... 196/2377 (-2147483648%)
Please let me know if there's more information or help I can give.
