Are you interested to become the maintainer for the Cygwin versions
of fetchmail, procmail and mutt? I would like to put your versions

You could change that in configure.in. Shouldn't be too hard.

Makefile.in?

If you change the configuration so that it gets build that way
by a simple `configure && make' it wouldn't be just a workaround
but a real port.
