Comment (by kprussing):

 I was able to build neomutt by cloning the [https://github.com/macports
 /macports-ports macport-ports] repository, applying the patch below, and
 then running `port install` from the mail/neomutt directory. As I
 mentioned above, this fixes the neomutt port, but would not fix any other
 ports that run into the same issue. This also removed the need for me to
 select the `-doc` variant (which fails now because
 `${prefix}/etc/mime.types.sample` isn't created for that variant and the
 post-activate step expects it to exist)
