It only affects Wheezy installs, more precisely systems with perl 5.12
or later.

  I'm running Sid (up to date) - it's now fixed thanks to a patch.
But I don't understand why it doesn't affect Wheezy ??

Thanks. I missed that patch.
Still running mc 2:4.6.2~git20080311-4 and for that the deb script is in 


/usr/share/mc/extfs.
Works great.

You're certainly not the only one.
I have not found a solution: it does not seem to be dependent on the 
version of mc.

You are not the only one. I am missing this option, too. 
It was quite comforttable for a quick look into a package.

Hope, it will be fixed soon.
