I recently started using Mac OS X again, and installed HomeBrew [1] to be able to automate the upgrade of various software components not already included.
When installing the requisite programs to build mutt from HEAD, automake
1.12 was installed. Unfortunately, this new version of automake caused
mutt not to prepare! The output of my attempt to prepare follows.
#v+
dave@pooh:~/usr/src/mutt/mutt$ cat ../configure-mutt.sh
#!/bin/sh
# For FreeBSD, append '=/usr/local' to the --with-sasl line.
# For Mac OS X, append '=/usr/local' to the --with-tokyocabinet line.
./prepare \
--prefix=$HOME/usr \
--with-homespool=Maildir \
--enable-debug \
--enable-hcache \
--with-tokyocabinet=/usr/local \
--with-curses \
--enable-smtp \
--enable-imap \
--with-ssl \
--with-sasl

Note: This prepare command has worked in the past on Mac OS X. Next, I
make sure my sources are up to date, and try to prepare.

At least one other is seeing this (noted in mutt-kz's issues [2]).
If someone confirms, I will put a new issue in the tracker.
