This turns out to be a combination of the nntp patch (properly maintained externally) and the mtime patch (less properly maintained by the mail/mutt port). It seems as if FreeBSD's patch fuzzer isn't inserting check_maildir_times() at the proper location. I would be the one to blame for this because I took the stance "if the patch applies (even with fuzzing) we're good." Clearly that was a bad idea. Applying just nntp or mtime everything is alright. However, when you both port options an alternative mtime is applied that takes into account nntp changes. A new mtime-nntp patch should be generated with updated context. Keep an eye out for this update in ports HEAD.
