I'll try to investigate as soon as possible. Right now I'm preparing to
release version 4.6.0-pre2 of 'mc' but there seems to be some strange
problem with the updating of the current selection position when
moving with the arrow keys, which I havent had enough time to debug
properly. It is not the same problem that you experience though - I'll
try to find out whats going on in the weekend.
