In 1.5.21-6.4ubuntu2.1, if you edit debian/rules, and change HCACHE_DB
to from tokyocabinet to anything else (be that bdb, gdbm or qdbm),
rebuild the package and install the new package, the crash goes away.
This is almost certainly a bug in libtokyocabinet. Note that I also had
to add --enable-external-dotlock to the configure switches for some
reason, otherwise the package doesn't build, at least with mutt
1.5.21-6.4ubuntu2.1. Please change mutt to rely on Berkeley DB or gdbm
instead of tokyocabinet.

Title:
mutt (libtokyocabinet8) crashes when fetching IMAP-headers
Status in mutt package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
mutt (1.521-5) crashes very often when fetching IMAP-headers. "Hole
Nachrichten-Köpfe... 187/241 (77%)Speicherzugriffsfehler" (Same
problem with mutt-patched)
This happens with several IMAP-servers on several mailaccounts.
I compiled mutt agains Berkeley DB 4.8.30 and this does not happen. So
I think the real problem is libtokyocabinet8 (1.4.37-6.1) which is
used fr the headercache.
