:) A better solution may be possible, but this one works just fine for 
the moment, anyway.

Many thanks. I've now got a working build of mc-4.6.2-pre1 with both Dar 
and LZMA support. Great...

Seems a little strange that Midnight Commander doesn't accept the time 
information. I wonder why the change was made.
