Enchant is spelling related so may be optional with the --with/without-
gtkspell option to configure.

That means the ssl deps weren't found (gnutls-dev?) so pan was configured 
without them.

No clue on that one.

Working here (gentoo, building from git), but still crashy.  In particular 
I've found pan crashes quite reliably if I hover the mouse over the body 
pane, so apparently some pointer event triggering it.  I've not debugged 
beyond that.  If I steer clear of the body pane (literally, maneuver the 
mouse around it so as to avoid triggering that crash), pan's reasonably 
stable.

And some of my replies still aren't showing up, tho that's using gmane so 
could be a problem with its forwarding to the mailing lists or with the 
mailing list processing, as opposed to a problem with pan.  It's also 
possible it could be a bug in the particular gmime version (3.2.7) gentoo 
currently has available.

(Using pan to post this via gmane.)
