Package: mc
Version: 1:4.6.0-4.6.1-pre1-3
Severity: normal

I almost always use mc in my xwindows terminal window. Actually, I use
KDE and konsole package. Konsole allows opening multiple tabs with
different content.
When my system is loaded, or even when I react too fast, I can hang mc
instance. It cannot be rescued and must be killed.
Reproducible: often.
Steps to reproduce:
1. Run XWindows, then konsole.
2. Press (quickly) the following keys combinations:
 - ctrl-alt-n (creates new tab and switches to it)
 - mc [enter] (just execute mc)
 - ctrl-s (I use it for fast search in mc. This step is crucial for the
   bug)
3. That's all. Mc is hung up. Does not react for any keys (ctrl-q,
ctrl-s, ctrl-c, ctrl-d, esc, other). Must be killed.

Got backtrace from gdb:
