The problem you'll run into here is that Mutt gets built in a directory,
then when it's moved to the installed directory by your 'cscp' program,
it will continue looking for support files from the origina directory
where you configured it.
I think what you'll have to do is configure mutt with --prefix set to
the actual path you will eventually install to. Then, you'll have to
recreate the actions that 'make install' would have performed ('make -n
install' would probably be helpful here), using your 'cscp' program.
You will need to have an administrator install the mutt_dotlock program.
But you will only have to do that once; it does not change from version
to version.
