Thanks for the headsup. I'll fix this in the next release.

There is a small difference in the description of the acsc capability. You
can diff them by yourself using the output of infocmp. And after all
rxvt-cygwin-native is supposed to be used when rxvt is using W11 instead
of X11.

Anyway the point of my last email was that the information is available in
the MC readme file.
