This is the trace when I try to open a folder (> 1MB):

http://seis.bris.ac.uk/~mexas/mutt.truss.open.folder

I also see that I might be using old libraries:


# ldd /usr/local/bin/mutt

# make -C /usr/src check-old-libs
>>> Checking for old libraries
/lib/libcrypto.so.6
/usr/lib/libssl.so.6
# 

I probably need to do make-delete-old, and then
rebuild mail/mutt again.
