I've encountered similar problem on linux console in command line string on panels window: just after start of mc or after viewing/editing a file, command line string contains a garbage:
in addition to prompt (sknaumov@sknaumov:~$, white on black) there is a garbage (;mc [sknaumov@sknaumov]:~, black on blue).
Under tmux or on xterm everything is ok.

Note that the problem also shows in the "Directory path" field in the "Directory hotlist" dialog. I guess it might be present elsewhere if some common code is culprit.

Replying to wwp:

Note that the problem also shows in the "Directory path" field in the "Directory hotlist" dialog. I guess it might be present elsewhere if some common code is culprit.

Also in copy dialog in source and target fields.
