 I have nothing good to say about starting MC with the -d option and highly reccomend recompiling. Disabling mouse 
support will still allow gpm copy/paste functions while not operating in a GUI.

If you wish to avoid rebuilding MC for the time being, I have found simply rolling the mouse wheel will bring the focus 
back to whichever window you are hovering over, even over the task-bar, usually without disturbing the cursor.
