Crash in dcigettext.c when selecting a file/dir

[wwp <subscript free fr>]

Hello there,


I recently had to install mc from the sources (2006-08-12 snapshot) on
a - don't laugh - Redhat 7.0 system. mc crashes in dcigettext.c on each
[INS] keystroke (to select a dir or file). I could easily get rid of
the crash by recompiling with --disable-nls. I didn't encounter such
problems building mc (same snapshot) on various more recent GNU/Linux
systems, even including few RH7.0.

You'll find below a quick backtrace from gdb and the summary
from ./configure.

Is that something to care about (I can leave w/o NLS support)? Is that
a known issue or would you need more detail about the configuration?
