It's actually documented in the manual (man mc).  The option is called
"-P" - print last directory.  Normally you define a function that calls mc
with this option and then changes the directory to the output of MC.

RedHat packages put mc.sh and mc.csh to /etc/profile.d, so that they are
loaded automatically when you login.  You can put those files to
/etc/profile.d by hand or you can load mc.sh from ~/.bash_profile
