Midnight Commander Startup Bug

["Fox, Kevin M" <KMFox mail bhi-erc com>]

Using the source files for ORBit 0.3.97 and MC 4.5.13
The first time crash still apears.

Problem:
If you load X, then gmc, and hit the X (close) button on a gmc window, gmc
crashes. 
The second and all other times running gmc until you restart X, gmc doesnt
crash when hitting the close button.

I tryed to compile mc with the debug stuff but it dies with:
util.o: In function `get_current_wd':
util.o(.text+0x1098): the `getwd' function is dangerous and should not be
used.
util.o: In function `mad_strdup_vprintf':
util.o(.text+0x1b5f): undefined reference to `__va_copy'
make[1]: *** [mc] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/redhat/BUILD/mc-4.5.13/src'
make: *** [all] Error 1
Bad exit status from /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.25396 (%build)

It compiles just fine without the debug stuff.

If I run gdb gmc and hit the close button, I get:
	[root@george /root]# gdb gmc
	[snip gdb license stuff]
	(no debugging symbols found)...
	(gdb) run
