Hello,

I just compiled mc-4.8.26 (release version) on two systems, one
ancient, one current gentoo and:

I can confirm this is fixed, thanks a lot!

As ABorodin wrote, known issue, also confirmed fixed.

Again known issue, https://midnight-commander.org/ticket/3603, still
open but fix pending for .27 ;) I can live with a local fix until
then.

But I noticed a 4th issue, both in 4.8.26_rc1 and 4.8.26 compiled
against ncursesw6, namely that e.g. Ctrl-Pos1/Ctrl-End in mcedit did
nothing at all (it works compiled against slang).

Anyone heard of that / noticed it? Any possible recent change in the
code that could trigger this? I can easily recompile, but I guess I'll
need to install the "broken" version under a different name, because
without mc/mcedit I feel crippled I use Ctrl-{Pos1,End} a lot ;)
