Mutt versions 1.4.1 and 1.5.4 have just been released and will soon 
be available from ftp://ftp.mutt.org/mutt/. 
 
Both versions fix a buffer overflow in mutt's IMAP client code which 
was identified by Core Security Technologies, and fixed by Edmund 
Grimley Evans.  A more detailed advisory will be published by Core 
Security. 
 
Version 1.4.1 is a release on mutt's stable branch.  The only 
differences against 1.4 are a number of bug fixes.  If you are 
currently using mutt 1.4, it's probably a very good idea to update. 
 
Version 1.5.4 is a snapshot of mutt's unstable branch, and may be 
interesting to those brave souls who would like to play with the 
latest features.  (Or want to help us to identify some bugs in that 
code.)

Due to the fact that I wanted to commit some changes to mutt-1.4 anyway, I
wrote a new ebuild for mutt-1.4.1.

Works fine on my ppc and x86.

I'll close this bug.
