I see that this has already been discussed a lot, sorry.

I'm sending a report to one of the ncurses maintainers who monitors the
mutt lists to see if he wants to get involved and help fix this.

Please be aware that slang has it's own problems.  For one, if you have a
large number of 'color' entries (like, around 30+), slang will claim the
terminal capabilities don't support it and start ignoring the color
commands.  In other words, it has a very low value for COLOR_PAIRS.

It would be preferable to figure out what's wrong with building with
ncurses and fix that.
