Subject: Bug#420598: mutt: segfaults in uxterm with > 254 columns if there
are single byte 8-bit characters in index_format
Package: mutt
Version: 1.5.9-2sarge2
Severity: normal
Since a long time, my index_format for mutt is set as follows:
set index_format="%4C %Z %[%a·%d·%b] %-16.16F [%-12.12L] (%4c %4l) %s%> %M"
It works fine since years and even inside uxterms with
LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8, but no other locale environment variables set.
To track down the problem, I used a .muttrc only containing the above line.
If I now resize the uxterm with an running mutt inside to more than
254 columns of if I start mutt inside such an uxterm with more than
254 columns, mutt segfaults.
It does not happen inside an xterm (same configuration). Although mutt
shows only 255 (but not 254 as I would have expected) columns of
content in there. (Probably a mutt internal limit.) The segfault also
does not happen if I replace the two occurences of "·" with "-", but a
segfault shouldn't happen anyway.
How to reproduce:
=================
Write the following line as only line into $HOME/.muttrc with
iso8859-1 charset:
set index_format="%4C %Z %[%a·%d·%b] %-16.16F [%-12.12L] (%4c %4l) %s%> %M"
Then, on a display with (at least) 1600x1200 resolution, open an
uxterm with the font "fixed", e.g. by calling "uxterm -fn
fixed". Maximise that window -- at least horizontally. Depending on
the window managers border width (fvwm2 with 3px borders here) the
uxterm should have around 260 columns. Check that with e.g. typing
"echo $COLUMNS".
Then start mutt in a nearly virgin environment:
env -i LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 USER=$USER HOME=$HOME TERM=xterm mutt
mutt will segfault when trying to display the mail index.

I can reproduce the bug with current tip with an utf8-encoded muttrc:
set index_format="%4C %Z %[%a·%d·%b] %-16.16F [%-12.12L] (%4c %4l) %s%> %M"
xterm, utf8, 253 columns.
