>Description:
MH has packf command -- which packs part of or entire folder to a file.
You can retrieve packed mail by inc command with -file option.

But that command dumps core on FreeBSD's port.
After core dump. Packed file that contains only the first to pack  remains.
This problem happens common to ALL RELEASE version of FreeBSD I tried 
   -- 2.1.0 through 2.2.2 and 3.0-current.
>How-To-Repeat:
1. Prepare any MH's folder contains some mail
2. issue 'packf +foo -file bar'
3. answer yes to question from packf  :Create file "/export/home/toyonaga/foo"

>Fix:
Sorry, have no idea
