Hello,

There is probably a bug in mc, though some people say it is a bug in 
vte, so I don't know whom to address this, but I kindly ask you to do 
something with this :)

In order to catch this bug download any Linux Kernel source archive and 
untar it somewhere, then fire up Midnight Commander and also be ready to 
totally overlap gnome-terminal + running mc with some other window, for 
e.g. Firefox or any other application or File Browser. Then start 
deleting the unpacked Linux Kernel source directory with F8 in mc and 
overlap this "gnome-terminal + mc window" with Firefox for example. 
After you make gnome-terminal window active again you can see that mc is 
totally unresponsive and the deleting process is also hung...

Thank you.

Alexander
