edit (and save) files. That holds true for existing and newly created
ones. Currently I'm unable to figure out the underlying problem.
Other editors work as expected. Even a strace provided me with no
hints.

This does not happen on any of my dozen+ 12.2 systems, though I don't run that broken mc version. I have 4.8.3-7.1 from the build service on some, and the current version from the Factory mirrors on others.

Also, I do not migrate settings to ~/.config. I create a symlink there from ~/.mc.

My system consists of:

Linux lnx30 3.4.11-2.16-default #1 SMP Wed Sep 26 17:05:00 UTC 2012 (259fc87) 
x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

What root filesystem?

mc-4.8.1.3-4.1.2.x86_64

OpenSUSE rpm?

Things I would try:

Force fsck on the root filesystem.
Upgrade to the Factory version.
