First, make sure you aren't hitting the pad-Enter key in the index - try 
it somewhere else, such as the query menu or alias menu.

The index had a bug (now fixed in git master) where it would display the 
"key is not bound" message when trying to invoke <select-entry>, because 
<select-entry> is not actually implemented in the index.

If that fixes it, then also add
   bind index <F79> display-message
to your muttrc.

If not, there may be some logic problem translating to/from the curses 
input.  I thought F## values in curses only went up to 64.  Typically, 
curses should handle keypad-enter and return a special value that Mutt 
would print as <Enter>.

I'll try to dig into it if that's not the problem.  However, my keyboard 
doesn't have a keypad so I may have some difficulty debugging.  :-)
