Given the difficulties that you are having, I'm really wondering why you
haven't simply installed mc from any of the package management systems
available for Mac OS X (MacPorts, homebrew, Fink, rudix, ...).

I'm sorry, it's way too difficult to pinpoint what exactly is that you
did wrong, but it seems that you are trashing your / (apparently without
realizing it) instead of working in a clean prefix, so... really... you
are on your own.

Unfortunately, I can't afford to explain in details how one should
safely build software from source, but maybe somebody else can help you
further if they have time & inclination.
