I don't think you tested exactly this change successfully. The real fix is

MC_PWD=`cat "$MC_PWD_FILE"`

You can leave out the outer double quotes in a variable assignment (at
least in sh; I don't know csh). Your suggestion of enclosing only the
MC_PWD_FILE variable in backticks is wrong, since that variable contains
a file name, and that file isn't executable.

In the current mc's source, it has already been fixed. Thank you anyway
for mentioning it.
