I was looking for mutt-1.3.14 in ftp://ftp.mutt.org/pub/mutt, but the
highest release there was mutt-1.2.5i.  This is what caused me to
download the "unstable" release from the "snapshots" directory.  But
after going back to the FTP site and digging around, I now realize
that I could have found version 1.3.14i in
ftp://ft.mutt.org/pub/mutt/devel.

Well, now I understand the directory structure of the mutt site a
little better, so in the future I won't get lost again.  But is there
any documentation that would direct people to the "devel" directory
instead of "snapshots"?

But anyway, all's well that ends well.  Thanks again to everyone.
