    _______________________________________________________

Details:

mc always shows 0755 as ".." permissions ­— that's incorrect behaviour.
Much better way is to show nothing as mc does not show mtime, size and some
other attributes of ".." at all.

User, group and some other values are broken too, seems, src/screen.c should
be patched to check for ".." in more places.
