the term 'blank screen' was misleading (to me).  "Totally black" might
have jogged my memory regarding $COLORFGBG (though the unrelated report
of the pager which does not display anything was what I was thinking
about).

It's not a mutt problem, though as you noted.  When I first saw it (early
September or late August), it was from running the ncurses test program.
