mtools version 3.9.11 is no longer available upstream, and the old
website merely redirects to the FSF homepage.  This means that mtools
is currently not buildable (unless youalready have cached copy o the
source somewhere).

This patch fetches and builds version 4.0.10 from the GNU website.  I
haven't needed any patches for the architectures I've built for so
far.
