The below patch against pkgsrc-2016Q3 makes the package build
successfully with pbulk.  It sets the DOTLOCK_GROUP variable to be
empty.  The Makefile target checks that DOTLOCK_GROUP is not empty
before doing the chgrp, and since it is empty, the target does not
do the chgrp, and hence the install phase succeeds.  I haven't tried
installing the package, but it looks correct (i.e., it includes
bin/mutt_dotlock and +INSTALL contains "PERMS: bin/mutt_dotlock 2551
root mail").

Thanks,

Lewis
