It took me a while to compile mc successfully. My setup is still a hack that depends on the right mix of executables from Strawberry Perl, git for Windows and gnuwin32. But I'll try to split out and submit obviously correct parts. The lack of PRs could be a sign that the prospective contributors also have trouble compiling mc. Improving the build system would help them make and test their modifications.
