Argl, my mistake. And because I hate making mistakes I took some time and I
found a fix!
Please try this patch:

I have absolutely no idea why, but this little exec in front causes all this
pain. With it, I can't compile mutt on my machine (with autoconf and automake
installed), without it it's no problem at all.
What I saw is that with this exec, the Makefiles somehow contain a VPATH
variable set to the current build directory and both srcdir and top_srcdir
get set to different values that without this exec.
The Makefiles seem to be designed as if they presume srcdir and top_srcdir set
to relative rather than absolute paths. With absolute paths, ./po/Makefile
fails to recreate ./keymap_defs.h
