Yes. To see the error you need MC linked against ncurses.

1) mcedit /some/file

2) Ctrl + L

3) Watch the second line

`w' is the number of columns, so 
`w - (fname_len + gap)' is everything except
fname and the gap, and then you have two more spaces.

For further explanation read my email regarding the 
internal editor + ncurses, the section which quotes
the `addch' manpage. Also read the printf (3) manpage
regarding the use of '*'.
