I installed ncurses 5.2 in a separate path /usr/opt/ncurses-5.2.
Then I built mutt 1.2.5.1:

./configure  --prefix=/usr/opt/mutt-1.2.5.1 \
--includedir=/usr/opt/ncurses-5.2/include \
--libdir=/usr/opt/ncurses-5.2/lib --with-curses=/usr/opt/ncurses-5.2

It requires xterm-16color or similar.
But still it doesn't recognize default as background color.
