In general, as Will says, no.  But segfaults are always of interest, in 
case the bug is present in Mutt too.  Particularly for easy to 
reproduce, clearly common functionality.

In this case, the bug was fixed in commit 786aa6cf for release 1.8.1.

I like to encourage people to post to mutt-users first, as was done 
here, and if it's clear there is a bug in Mutt, create a ticket on 
gitlab: <https://gitlab.com/muttmua/mutt/issues>.
