FreeBSD Port: mc-4.8.14

[Ben Woods]

Hi Jiri,

I am having difficulty replicating this fault, however it is no doubt
linked to the change made in 4.8.14 under MC bug report #2027. See here:
http://www.midnight-commander.org/ticket/2027

Have you set a custom bash prompt in a .bashrc or .bash_profile or
/etc/profile? If so, what have you set so that I can try and replicate this
issue?

Thanks,
Ben
