hi.  i'm trying to apply the diff file for 1.3.22 to 1.3.22.1 and i find
it strange how it works.

first, i have to run "./configure" before i can apply the patch.

second, after applying the patch i have to somehow create a file name
"README.UPGRADE" as the compilation is looking for that file.  without
it the compile will fail.

third, after step two i keep getting this error messages in the "po/"
directory:

PATH=../src:$PATH : --default-domain=mutt --directory=.. \
  --directory=.. --add-comments --keyword=_ --keyword=N_ \
  --files-from=./POTFILES.in \
&& test ! -f mutt.po \
   || ( rm -f ./mutt.pot \
              && mv mutt.po ./mutt.pot )
              file=./`echo uk | sed 's,.*/,,'`.gmo \
                && rm -f $file && PATH=../src:$PATH  -o $file uk.po
                /bin/sh: -o: command not found
                make[2]: *** [uk.gmo] Error 127
                make[2]: Leaving directory
                `/root/backup/mail/mutt/mutt-1.3.22/po'
                make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
                make[1]: Leaving directory
                `/root/backup/mail/mutt/mutt-1.3.22'
                make: *** [all-recursive-am] Error 2

although this missing files are present before i run make.

i wouldn't normally have problems compiling if i don't apply the patch.
i hate to download the whole mutt-1.3.22 tarball again as i'm on a slow
dial-up line.  is there anything i can fix to make the patch compile?
