As I mentioned in a previous message on mailbox corruption, I've
gotten mush 7.2.6 beta(2) running under FreeBSD 2.1. The process
was a bit painful, but the fixes required are actually fairly minor.
One patch to mush.h, which I'll repeat below, ensures that the
ftruncate() call is always made with the proper argument types,
and the other is a necessary customization in config.h to allow your
timezone to be read properly. (The latter could be formalized in an
#ifdef BSD44 in config.h-dist, but I'll leave that to Bart or whoever
maintains the patches as a whole, since it's debatable which method is
cleaner.)
Other than this, I used makefile.freebsd and config.h-dist as is,
except for changing directory paths to my liking.
Here are my changes:

Good luck!
