Koon,
Do you have a patch put together that patches clean for gentoo?

I haven't a patch yet. I can try to derive one from the Mandrake advisory, but
it will probably be unclean. 

Heinrich : can you try to build a patch from the mc CVS ? If not, I will try to
put something together from the Mandrake sources...
