patch: /usr/local/bin/mutt_dotlock setgid mail

Because of FreeBSD 8 EOL, I upgraded to 10 and recompiled ports. The mail/mutt14 port stopped to work: fetch-mail gave an error message, something like "cannot lock /var/mail/lena". In order to create a lock file in /var/mail, the /usr/local/bin/mutt_dotlock binary needs to be setgid, group "mail". The error is because mutt_dotlock has group "wheel" instead of "mail". Before the recompile mutt_dotlock had group "mail", I checked in a backup. The mail/mutt14 port needs group "mail" specified in pkg-plist, like the mail/mutt port. Patch attached.
