Well, I just applied the new MUSH 6.5.5 patch and much to my astonishment, when
I tried to run it on my SCO Xenix 2.2.3 system I got a core dump!  I first tried
looking at the core file with adb but since the MUSH automatic signal handlers
got there first, I couldn't determine where the error was occuring.  Then I
tried recompiling without the INTERNAL_MALLOC defined but got the same error.
What DID work was when I re-ran MUSH inside 'adb' and THEN I found out approx.
where the error was occuring.  At that point I found references to the
'mailfile' file variable.  I then looked in the Patch file and sure enough, in
the 'options.c' file there is a patch that replaces:

    mailfile = "";

  with 

    flags->folder = "";

Well, that is fine as far as it goes but there are still many references to 
'mailfile' in the program.  So, here is the patch.  It seems to work for me.
I normally wouldn't post something like this but I spent about 4 hours on it
and hope to keep other people from doing the same.

DISCLAIMER:  I really don't understand all that is going on with 'flags->folder'
and 'mailfile' variables so it is possible that this isn't a complete fix and/or
it messes something else up, but if so, I haven't found it yet.
