IN
  mush 6.5 patched patchlevel 5
  (such that mailfile is always assigned in main.c)
IF
  you don't have a ~/.mushuser
AND
  you use the default Mushrc
THEN
  you get a segmentation fault when mush attempts to print the
  prompt in the line in Mushrc which reads:
    echo -p "\n${prompt}expert\n"

I suspect this is still a mailfile-related problem, probably occurring
when mush tries to expand the "%f" in the $prompt string in the routine
mail_status() at line 493 of msgs.c.
