Well, it was a reason I did not commit this patch.  Unfortunately
it really can be used uninitialized.  There is at least one place
(in layout.c, quick view) where view_init called 
with command => NULL and file => "".  Another unpleasant discovery was:
mc_open ("", ...) and mc_stat ("", ...) operate with current directory
and return usually someting but not -1.

It seems it is more easy to rewrite it from scratch with 
libsmbclient URL syntax: 
smb://[[[domain;]user[:password@]]server[/share[/path[/file]]]]
and other good stuffs.
