I've been hit by this as well so I thought I'd look into it today, and I
think I found the problem! I just sent an email upstream to
bug-mailutils@gnu.org about it.
Essentially, we have a `weedc' variable that's not initialized, and on
aarch64 it gets initialized with `0xffff'. See
https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/mailutils.git/tree/readmsg/readmsg.c#n469
Here's the reproducer I just sent upstream:
```
$ export MAIL=/tmp/guix-build-mailutils-3.10.drv-0/mailutils-3.10/testsuite/spool/mbox1
$ export FOLDER=/tmp/guix-build-mailutils-3.10.drv-0/mailutils-3.10/testsuite/spool/mbox1
$ ... edit readmsg script so that `gdb --args' is prepended
$ /tmp/guix-build-mailutils-3.10.drv-0/mailutils-3.10/readmsg/readmsg --no-site --no-user readmsg -h SOMETHING
...
(gdb) start
Temporary breakpoint 2 at 0x4034c8: file readmsg.c, line 463.

```
The test suite all passes if we initialize `int weedc = 0'!
Thanks,
Pierre
