One omission is that you did not properly quote filenames that might 
start with a hyphen. Imagine a weird rpm called -package-4.5.rpm.

To solve this you can use mc_shellquote:

mc_shellquote() {
  case "$1" in [A-Za-z0-9_./]*) echo "$1";; *) echo "./$1";; esac
}

trpm_copyout() {
  rpmname=`mc_shellquote "$1"`
  ...
}
