I'd say that either MiNT or munpack doesn't like a empty
environment-string. Try 'pexec(0, "munpack.ttp", " email.txt", NULL)'
instead. That way munpack will inherit the parent's environment.

nfree/nalloc etc. are internal MiNT memory-management routines. To me
it looks like nfree chokes when it tries to free the
environment-string when munpack exits.
