I will add however that when mutt is compiled to use the standard
/lib/libcurses in OpenSolaris mutt won't displaying color text however I
notice that vim will properly display color text using the same
libcurses and same terminal env. settings in a gnome-terminal.  Any
thoughts as to why mutt isn't displaying color text with libcurses?

I've attached the gzipped config.log created when I configured mutt
using --with-curses=/lib.
