Weird. How did you apply the patches?

Did you, as the error message suggest, use the right -p option? From the
good directory?

Sample of what you should have done:

  $ wget http://cedricduval.free.fr/download/patch-1.3.24.cd.edit_threads.8
  $ tar xvzf mutt-1.3.24i.tar.gz
  $ cd mutt-1.3.24
  $ patch -p1 < ../patch-1.3.24.cd.edit_threads.8
  patching file `thread.c'
  patching file `OPS'
  patching file `copy.c'
  patching file `curs_main.c'
  patching file `doc/manual.sgml.head'
  patching file `functions.h'
  patching file `mutt.h'
  patching file `mx.c'
  patching file `pager.c'
  patching file `parse.c'
  patching file `protos.h'
  patching file `recvcmd.c'
  patching file `send.c'
  patching file `PATCHES'

> So is it the patching that went wrong?

I suspect you applied the patches at the wrong place, because other
peoples have had no problem. If not, maybe we should continue off-list
to see what's wrong.

Cheers,
