Details:
Hello,
mc crashes at startup (SIGSEGV) on my system after uninitialized variable is
passed to tgetstr() in tty.c : 230.
Initializing that variable to NULL fixes the problem for me.
I will provide any further info if needed.
Attached - patch and showcase (forcing non-NULL value to crash)
(diffs against currect CVS)
