dd would show if the sequences begin with Escape or you are losing them
somewhere:

[proski portland src]$ dd
^[[23~^[[24~^[[25~^[[26~^[[28~
0+0 records in

That's the most interesting part.  Let's do it step by step.  This is how
it works for me:

Esc 9 o k             the "learn ley" dialog appears
l k                   the cursor goes to "Function key 13"
Space                 the "Teach me a key" dialog appears
Shift-F3              the dialog disappears
Shift-F3              OK appears near "Function key 13"
Esc s                 the "learn ley" dialog disappears
Esc 0 y               MC exits

$ sed -n '/\[terminal:screen\]/,/\[/s/f13/&/p' ~/.mc/ini
f13=\e[25~

When does it go differently for you?  Obviously, it should be \e[28~ for
you, but I'll be surprised it you cannot get to this point at all.
