- mailutils/lib/* are just replacement functions for things
like strcasecmp () etc .. or functions shared by the
utilities.
- mailutils/mailbox/* should not need anything explicitely from
mailutils/lib/*. mailbox/* is under LGPL.
In theory, if you have a POSIX compliant system mailutils/mailbox
will build standalone.

This seems like code only use by the utilities(frm, mail, ... etc)
not mailbox. I do not see any reference to mu_argp in mutil.c
