In mutt 1.5.23 with the sidebar patch applied, the first character of
each folder name in my sidebar is being dropped. "inbox" is displayed
as "nbox", "trash" becomes "rash", "root" shows as "oot", etc. It's
usable, but an annoyance.
Backing off to an older sidebar patch targeted at 1.5.22 [1] resolves
the problem. The full folder names are displayed.
Have others noticed this? Is there a better current fix than using the
sidebar patch targeted at 1.5.22?

FreeBSD reverted what looks like the .23 targeted sidebar patch back to
what looks like the .22 targeted sidebar patch with a note that "sidebar
patch is buggy"

Further details:
mutt 1.5.23 on Mac OS X 10.9.5, built via MacPorts (with variants
+gpgme+headercache+imap+pop+qdbm+sasl+sidebar+smtp+ssl+trash). I see
the problem running mutt under both iTerm.app and Terminal.app.
Building mutt with ncurses or slang doesn't change the outcome.
