Are you sure your sources are in sync with the repository? Try to
do cvs update. I've experienced the same problems with argcv.c
version 1.9. Or, possibly some of your objects are not updated again.
The strange messages are due to the fact that "set something"
statements, executed at the beginning of mail.c:main are interpreted
as "set" and cause printing of the current environment. The

> source requires an argument

is produced by line mail.c:287, and is again due to the fact that
the "source .mailrc" statement was misinterpreted as "source", which
is a syntax error.
