Details:

When I see some files with 8-bit characters or a binary file using the
internal MC viewer, the search popup spontaneously appears with some trash
inside. When I cancel search by typing escape key or fulfil it by typing
enter, it reappears immediately and so on to infinity. After that there is no
way to use mc, and I need to kill the task.

There was no such bug in the earlier versions on MC.
