Thanks, Vincent.
Nevertheless, in my 1.11.3 source directory I had the two files,
1) dotlock.c
2) mutt_dotlock.c

Then I did a
mv '1.11.3 source directory'/mutt_dotlock.c mutt/mutt_dotlock.c
and a
git status
git add
and now it's part of my latest mutt source installation (git-cloned)

So, what I do not know and that's why I am bothering the developer
list is whether "my mutt is duly dotlocked". (security,security :-)

Anyway, thanks for your advice, merci pour votre assistance.
