Hi

In the latest release of mc, subshell isn't working. Ctrl-O just shows the 
background. However, if I build mc myself from the sources, subshell works 
fine.

mc-4.6.1-2.sh build script uses the following configure options:

   ${srcdir}/configure \
   --srcdir=${srcdir} --prefix="${prefix}" \
   --exec-prefix='${prefix}' --sysconfdir="${sysconfdir}" \
   --libdir='${prefix}/lib' --includedir='${prefix}/include' \
   --mandir='${prefix}/share/man' --infodir='${prefix}/share/info' \
   --libexecdir='${sbindir}' --localstatedir="${localstatedir}" \
   --datadir='${prefix}/share' \
   --disable-nls \
   --disable-background \
   --with-mmap \
   --with-x \
   --with-gpm-mouse=no \
   --with-screen=ncurses \
   --with-ext2undel=no \
   --with-subshell=optional \
   --with-glib12 )

Why is background disabled? And why ncurses instead of S-Lang?
