Enrico, feel free to create branch with your mvfs subsystem (but need a
clean precise code, without any "little refactoring" or indentation of
existing files).

As I understand, mvfs completelly incompatible with present VFS.
Therefore need to add option '--with-vfs=<mcvfs|mvfs>' into ./configure
script. Default must be traditional VFS.

Also, keep in mind that in near future some directories, such as
$(srcdir)/vfs and $(srcdir)/edit will moved into $(srcdir)/src subdir
(for example, $(srcdir)/src/vfs and $(srcdir)/src/edit). This is a part
of old-time plan by reorganization directory structure.

Therefore (IMHO) better way for now: need to resolve ticket
http://www.midnight-commander.org/ticket/1866 as fast. Then you may add
your library into $(srcdir)/src/mvfs.

Is this good idea?
