If you read a few lines higher up, you would see the use of the "cc -Ae"

I am sorry that you feel insulted by HP's failure to give away software.
However, since I routinely build Mutt using the HP ANSI compiler, I
don't agree that gcc is required.

I have never experienced this; I'd be interested in a demonstration of it.
