You need to run the following to compile mc:
./autogen.sh
make
make install

You can pass configure options to autogen.sh, for example: --prefix=$HOME/mc
or use ./configure with options after ./autogen.sh. And then make and make 
install if you need. If you have two versions of glib, you can specify which 
one to use through ./configure --with-glib12 for 1.2 ver.
