FAT32, "lock count exceeded", mutt etc.

Looking through the mail archives I can't tell what the recommended fix
is for running mutt/fetchmail/procmail and all on a FAT32 partition, wrt
file locking problems.  There was plenty of discussion last summer but I
can't find a resolution.  So far I've tried CYGWIN=nontsec, and
reconfiguring and recompiling mutt.  No luck.  Help?  What are the magic
words?

The output from mutt -v is appended (Outlook Express is going to have
great fun wrapping it).

Thanks ... Scott
