I noticed minicom seems to be changed in the source minicom.c and the
patch patch-ae has outdated linenumbers.

The contents of the specific lines for the patch are around line 897 of
minicom.c and are commented out.
line 897 of minicom.c

removing patch-ae seems to be a workaround. After removing patch and make
install:
...
===> Compressing manual pages for minicom-1.80
===> Registering installation for minicom-1.80
