No subshell support in Midnight Commander #68

I'm running Debian 7.0 alongside Android 4.1.1 on my Galaxy Note 2 (GT N-7100). I use VX ConnectBot as my local terminal, which works perfectly except with Midnight Commander.

When I run a SSH server on Android (e.g. SSHDroid or just openssh-server) and log in from my GNU/Linux PC, I can use mc as expected, working on top of bash with subshell support straight out of the box by just running mc (you can see it's working by hitting Control-o and trying to use bash without exiting mc). However, when I run mc in a VX ConnectBot terminal session right from my phone, using exactly the same bash, environment and binaries (and TERM=xterm as with the PC client), mc refuses to use the subshell mode.
