Hello!

I am unable to "learn" keypad's '+', '-', and '*' in Linux console via
'Options-->Learn keys' menu, while working under conventional user
account. (Although the keys work as expected). E.g. the message box
shown for '+' is:

+- Cannot accept this key -+
|                          |
|   You have entered "+"   |
|                          |
+--------------------------+


Note, that the problem does not exist with root account on the same
machine. Keypad's '+', '-' and '*' are recognized with no problems by
mc in this case.

Moreover, the problem either does not exist for xterm and conventional
user accounts.
