Patching is really quite simple. If you have the patch program (test by running patch --help and looking for sensible results), then a simple save of the patch to some build dir and a cd $your_build_dir tar xpfz mutt-1.4i.tar.gz cd mutt-1.4 patch -p0 < ../name_of_patch ./configure ... make ... where -p0 is probably useful but might not be necessary and then you run the configure and make with whatever arguments you usually provide is all it takes. To see patching in action, surf over to http://mutt.justpickone.org/mutt-build-cocktail/ and take a look at the 00.makeme.sh script; that pulls together my entire patch cocktail in one step.
