I can confirm this, it's been bothering me for a few months now. It looks 
like there's something wrong in both MC and Zope. I am cross-posting to the 
MC list too ( http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/mc ).

I'm using MC 4.5.55 and Zope 2.4.3, and this has been going on at least from
MC 4.5.51 and Zope 2.3.1 , on Linux Slackware 7.1 and now 8.0 .

How does one enable this? I cannot see it in /proc/filesystems .
