Next close thing ..
Sometimes $TMPDIR is assigned to ~/tmp or smething similar and sometimes 
volumen with /home is mounted as noexec and this breaks many mc
functiomalities like "cd <arch_file>".
It will be good also clean this patr too by not direct run generated in
$TMPDIR script and run this script as /bin/sh parameter.
